Politicians thrive on the ability to manipulate the public. Red is a particular wavelength of light that can be scientifically measured. The inability of certain people to perceive it doesn't change the fact. A nickel is larger than a dime. A dime is more valuable than a nickel. Size and value are not synonyms. The inability to use language precisely is the source of many problems. I would suggest that if you consciously work on developing the habit of accurate thinking, of separating fact from opinion, of seeking the truth in every situation, of demanding evidence, it will pay dividends that spill over into every area of your life.[/QUOTE]
