Well stated. And, you're right, not what some want to hear right now.

Note: The OP doesn't say anything about "compromise" or "understanding" or "power sharing" -- it just advocates finding projects and areas where people can cooperate and work together. That seems reasonable, and positive (and proven). And as the piece also points out -- the people on the other side are not going to go away. Today, or tomorrow -- or the day after that.
