well not to lose the point...
whose support?
whose education?'Support' in politics makes me think about going to the local HQ of the political party of your choice and scheming how you can gerrymander the district so as to ensure the victory of your party in the next election. Not what is desired, evidently.
'Education', well, it would be great to get the Iranian perspective on the current imbroglio about nukes, as well as thoughts on how Iran's long term strategic goals were facilitated by the fall of Saddam Hussein. it would be great if we were diplomats, spies, or lobbyists in training and wanted to get perspectives 'from the ground' on what was going on.
And civility... well, surely the more educated we are in others' perspectives the more we have a true community? Or maybe not.
