Leaders who know what they're doing matter. Representatives who actually REPRESENT their constituents, matter. And generally people doing their jobs properly matter.
Recently, in a discussion, I heard someone talk about how we need to go beyond "The Golden Rule." It's not enough to treat someone as we would like to be treated. Rather, we need to pro-actively find out how someone would like to be treated, and do THAT. In this global village, where one minute we are in agreement on some element of life, and then at each other's throats because of a difference in another area, it's time to move on to the next level.
