Nothing wrong with the winner "reaching out" to the losers, and asking them to get on board. They ARE the losers, and if they want to fall in line behind the President, it will be good for the country.

That's not the same thing as moving over to the loser's position.

But with these guys, I hope the President doesn't leave that hand out there too long. When dealing with snakes, putting your hand out, is just offering a convenient target.

Add to that list....straighten out this voter registration mess. The current way things are done invites cheating...in this age of technology that is ridiculous. A national ID card which could also serve as a information depot for each individuals medical info...voter ID...drivers license..

Good point. Since when do the vanquished dictate terms to the victors? We can be gracious in victory and invite the defeated to join with us, but we're under no obligation to toe their line. They can work with us constructively, or get out of the way and stand off to the side, or try to stop us and get run over. Anyone with any sense would see what the least desirable of those choices is. But 'Rats aren't generally known for making sense.
