If there is no keeper of the chronicles no one can remember anything. If a tree falls in the forest, there might be a squirrel under there.
The best qualified scribe is your opponent. An opponent can be your most valuable ally. They will be motivated to write your biography, called “Don’t let this happen to you”. They will painstakingly record all of your foibles, gaffs, embarrassing moments and everlasting shameful mistakes. We are so used to having our opponents also be bloodthirsty predators that we immediately rise up with a can of mace ready to spray. Why?
Representation means listening to your opponents. Let me ask you this: “Where else are you going to obtain exhaustive and precise information from someone watching your every move?”
When you vanquish your opponent and raise your fist to the sky you just killed history. It became vapor and blew away. You cannot reassemble it. It’s lost. Your political spin machine can simply interject praises into the gaps, but is that accurate? Is history supposed to be accurate? You bet. We cannot learn from lies.
VotePlusPlus recommends a plurality, where opposing views are regarded as good information, not threats to an overinflated competitive ego. A leader’s self-worth should remain intact based on their ability to know that they know they are doing a great job. By the way, you as a citizen can tell if they ever happen to fall into that desirable state. They won’t look nearly so awkward on stage.
