Fine conversation! To make sense of leadership qualities, a person needs to distinguish between right and wrong, or between constructive and destructive tendencies. One could say that lying about the realities that most affect people's lives constitutes the most extreme form of evil.
That is a magnificent conversation, the depth and artistry of it expands ideas into ideals. You're both lucky to have each other. You're a "great" aunt! It is interesting for me to think of the history of political thought tracing back to "Plato's Republic," or Aristotle's "Politics." The conversation reminded me of an article I wrote at least a decade ago for a spiritual group I've been involved with called the Ageless Wisdom. The title was "The Spirituality of Politics." This had me thinking more about your conversation and ideas on how politics has been polluted by "men" who are wanting to control the idea of politics in order to turn people away from it. I hear too often "I hate politics." I hope your conversation with your young niece can begin to transform that old idea and bring in a new vision of what politics can become.
I want to read that article! Politics has been made to seem separate. It’s deceptive and destructive, and if we’re going to heal this country, it’s got to change. Thanks so much for sharing your work and for reading, Dr. MacNeil!
Another conversation is why some people think everything is about religion. Not true. We form opinions in three levels: physical, mental and spiritual. The less we make it political the more we realize the inherent goodness we all have! Great insight our how our children stretch us!

I agree, Dennis. I think the more we realize that politics is inseparable from daily life and personal beliefs, the more accessible it becomes.
