I have one question that I ask myself about political candidates before I even begin to consider voting for them. That question is: “Would I be OK with having this person over for evening dinner at my house with my family?” If the answer is “no,” then they are out of the running.
At that point, I don’t care about their ideas or their politics or whether they are red, blue or green. It is a nonstarter. If you are rude, obnoxious, loud, overbearing and hateful, then the answer is obvious.
If I don’t want you around my family, then I am certainly not voting for you. And I’d hope that every American would feel the same, especially those touting family values, religious beliefs, and how great things used to be.
