I agree we're subdividing into more special interest areas. In the early years of mass communication you were limited to 3 major tv networks and some pretty bland radio. Then along came cable and you had 600 options including a huge number of news channels. All of a sudden you can watch a conservative news show and opt out of cnn or msnbc. It tends to make people seperate into factions. Our society is becoming more like cable. People are breaking into Black Americans, Conservative Am., Liberal Am., Red Staters, etc. The single thing that has bothered me the most is that how the political party out of office will say and do anything to get back in office. Then when they get in office they don't do a single thing they promised. I don't believe for 1 minute that Obama will do anything to improve the
country. He will say or do whatever his advisors tell him he needs to do to get elected. I'm not so sure about McCain but I think he is closer to expressing what he believes over what people tell him to say.
