12. My memory is not that good.

But, if you have followed the Franken threads, you have seen my anger about what happened. I have not been shy about it. While I remain angry and bitter, I realized today that my anger can be used if I let it. I also realized that we need to be smart if we're going to vaccinate ourselves against the tactics that were employed in the last election.

Identify issues that can be turned into wedge issues and figure out a smart approach to mitigate the potential for division.

I only proposed a solution. There are many great minds here who might have a better solution.
