Politics: The Art of the Possible vs. the Art of Control
Big Tent Democrat and TChris today have written posts about politics. My question to BTD:
Why "Politics is the art of the possible" instead of "Politics is the art of controlling your environment?" If you do the latter, don't more things become possible?
Hunter Thompson's central premise was "Politics is the art of controlling your environment." Does that only apply to campaigns, not governing?
BTD thinks this is a great question and suggested I write it up in a separate post so here it is for anyone who wants to weigh in.
