The two of you have lost a career politician with years of practice and experience in real world politics to support you in finding an end to these flag wars

What are you,12? Did you win the school president gig or something? Son, I was working on capital hill for the president of the united states, several cabinet members and congressional appointees, congressmen and senators, when you were in PRESCHOOL, so yeah, keep talking, it's so pedantic, it's actually become amusing. Also, you must have started your career before finishing school, because your spelling, grammar and punctuation, are ALL atrocious. Dismal, really, and you had such high hopes for yourself too.
