Food for Thought: Getting the engine pistons fired up!

"Government for the People"

It is understood that during the period leading up to an election, there is a necessary need to show partisanship towards one's party, but the question at hand now remains once elected, at what point does it become crucial for one to place one's allegiance to one's party on 2nd tier & transition & begin to place your priorities on becoming bipartisan?

Merriam-webster's states that,"A democracy is defined as  a government elected by the people  where the ruling powers have a vested interest in the people and exercised by them directly or indirectly through a system of representation usually involving periodically held free elections."

With this in mind, how a government serve & protect the interest of the masses while remaining partisan & strictly pledging allegiance to your party and not remaining objective and serving the interests of all the people?

Far be it from me to force my opinions on others, but I firmly believe that it is necessary to open up dialogue and stir the pot if you will in order for the ingredients of the stew to mix and the flavors to blend creating the ideal meal to share and serve to the masses.

Bon Appetite!
