Pres BO has divided this country like no one before

Another poll and more evidence that we are a very divided nation.  

In other words, our next president faces a historic challenge, perhaps the biggest challenge since Pres Lincoln walked into the office 152 years ago.

We are deeply divided nation.  Our differences are about everything, from marriage to the role of government.


"One can also see the new Republican Party in those Americans who strongly identify with the tea party movement or are evangelical Christians who came to prominence in the party over the past two decades. There is even a group of Republicans who see a role for bigger government — at least a bigger role than others in the party accept.

The Democratic coalition includes a large share of liberal, affluent and mostly secular white voters but also a loyal cadre of African Americans and Latinos who are more religious and more conservative on social issues. The gap between them on social issues remains wide, but they are generally united in advocating a significant role for government."

My guess is that this "divide" will get worse if Pres BO is reelected.  It could be better with a Pres Romney because of the "honeymoon" that the new president gets.  No matter what, we are a divided country and things could get very ugly.
