Mitch Landrieu
Mitch Landrieu: 美国民众的分裂并非必然，而是人为选择的结果。通过寻找共同点，例如关注基础设施建设等民生问题，可以弥合分歧。当前美国面临的政治分裂并非源于特朗普，而是更深层次的社会问题，民主制度本身正受到威胁。特朗普不相信法治和民主，如果再次当选，将对民主造成更大破坏。哈里斯的竞选策略是将重点放在为民众服务，而不是自我宣传，这与特朗普的竞选策略形成鲜明对比。拜登政府的基础设施建设项目惠及全国各地，无论其政治倾向如何。选民应该优先考虑候选人的品格，而不是仅仅关注其政治立场。在政治生活中，寻找共同点需要主动努力，而不是被动等待。美国社会的分裂并非不可避免，而是由于人们的选择造成的，可以通过改变选择来改变现状。
Rick Wilson: 认同Landrieu的观点，并补充说明了当前美国政治环境的严峻性，以及两党政治的未来走向。
