@hightor,
Quote:some of us prefer leaders who exhibit traits like patience, perspective, and measured self-control.
Yes, but to not feel any anger at all about the present state of US (and world) politics is to be either complicit or out of touch. I agree it shouldn't overcome you entirely until foam drips from your mouth and it clouds your judgment, but a little dose of anger is only natural and healthy. And women are allowed to be angry too, I don't see it as non-ladylike.
I also agree with your point that the media (broad generality here) tends to oversimplify and caricature, and thus they tend to select the most "angry" segments in their representation of Warren or Sanders, probably because it
sells better than cogent analysis. Patience and perspective don't make for effective clickbait or exciting TV segments. They perhaps also oversimplify out of intellectual laziness. It would be naïve to take such lazy, caricatural media narrative as the ultimate truth about Warren or Sanders.
