You're right, we should be discussing this without heated competition and it really does appear that we are in agreement about the most fundamental issues.

But don't feel compelled to reflect on our perspectives any further than we've given you cause. In return, you should expect the same. I personally can't take seriously any hypothesis or assertion or edict or whatever that is ramrodded down as beyond suspicion through your impeccable derivation methods.

You want us to consider the possibility that there will be a dynamic of prejudice affecting the general election then you should back it up with reasons and expect the possibility that we may wish to disagree with your reasons.

I personally don't care whether or not you agree with me. I don't agree with myself half the time. I just need you to respond to my questions in a way that is demonstrative, pedagogical even, not blandly offensive and derisive.
