Small thinking

"Small thinking and outdated answers aren't the only problems with a vision for the future that is rooted in nostalgia. The trouble with nostalgia is that you tend to remember what you liked and forget what you didn't. It's not just that the answers of the past aren't up to the job today, it's that the system that produced them was corrupt - and still is."

- John Edwards, quoted by AP/Forbes (read full story here)

Ironic.

Small thinking and outdated answers have always been features of liberalism.

Remember that this man was almost vice president of the United States.

Funny, but he would not be qualified to be a VP at most successful companies.
