“I have chosen – as I believe we all must – someone who can represent me, someone who will do the work for me and present it in a way that I both understand and trust. (This is what politicians are supposed to do, but in the Reagan/George W. Bush era, the meaning of representation changed, from “I trust that guy to speak for me”, to “Hey! That guy’s just like me!” This alarming development is responsible for a great deal of damage, I fear.)”
