As to your second point...I said in my very first post that I see both sides of our political spectrum (conservative and liberal) to be 'naturally occurring'...that there is nothing inherently wrong with either stance.

Once again, as indicated in my first post, I see 'common ground' as essential to long lasting progress, as opposed to rigorous and unbending adherence to philosophies that impact others unacceptably...so, no there isn't any "Hidden Agenda"...let's keep talking.
