When You Feel Outraged by Some Political Issue Far Away,

[MineralMan]

Don't rage in vain. Look at your local political environment instead. What can you do to help improve it and help outstanding candidates win? Consider how much more difference you can make locally than in some district or state far from where you live.

Always look for the most effective action you can take and then take it. Don't expend your energy where it won't have any real impact. You vote locally. So, work locally to help your own representation be the very best it can be.

That's my advice.

1. good advice...

of course, helping someone 'far away' could also be helpful...

2. In reference to the young woman from the Bronx?

I agree. Too many are bashing her here. I'm keeping track. Always the same ones. i have noticed you in there trying to keep it down. Seems the, don't bash democrats rule, doesn't apply to her. She is young and new and she will make mistakes but some here think the democrats need to be perfect. They blow things way out of proportion. I like her style and wish her the best.
