Nations enveloped by politics never see beyond them. They search not so much for truth, but for the honor of their party. Everything of the other party, is wicked. Everything of their own party, is pure. They search not for right and wrong, but for the wrong of the other party.
This does not mean they never see the truth. But, they only see the truths their own party presents. And, they twist into falsehoods any of the truths the other party possesses. The nation, itself, becomes a nation not focused on the truth -- not focused on finding the truth -- but on believing the lies about the other party. The nation, then, runs the danger of becoming a nation that follows lies, a nation given to lies, and a nation that quickly buys into a lie.
And, such a nation is the United States of America.
