We Will Miss Dianne Feinstein’s Bipartisanship
<p>Feinstein, <a href="https://stanfordmag.org/contents/dianne-feinstein-goes-her-own-way" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">a 1955 graduate of Stanford</a>, made the following remarks about partisanship in a Stanford University commencement speech she gave in 1993: “I have been astonished by the primacy of partisanship — by the willingness, even when the nation is undeniably in trouble, to treat the great issues as occasions to score small points or attract a few voters.”</p>
<p>If more of those we elect shared Feinstein’s vision of bipartisanship, we would have a much better representative body, because those who have the ability to lead and affect positive change rise above the party line. But that simply is no longer what California politics is. And we, and the rest of the country, will be the worse for it.</p>
