MD US-election - Battle of the levels?

Hi All,

Since I've been following the US-election from the very beginning with great
interests, I have always tried to apply MoQ-aspects to it.
To follow Pirsigs predictive level-evolution, there would have to be expected a
sort of battle between the social and the intellectual level even when
considered at a large scale like the rivaling for presidency between the
Conservative Bush and the Democrat Gore.

I'm not sure, whether Bush is really representing THE static and social and Gore
really representing the intellectual and dynamic(?) or if they both have to be
considered to be static, only differing by social on the one hand an
intellectual on the other hand.

Actually I have no real preference to one or the other, but if I had to choose
I'd prefer Gore; at least he seems to be the more intelligent.

But tell me, people from America, is Gore really representing the intellectual
level and if he does, would this have been the intellectual level we are
'waiting' for?

It is a bizarre situation, isn't it?

Maybe they become both president of USA and playing dice with each other for who
is going to be president and who has to take the vice-presidency. :-)

Thanks for reading,

best,

JoVo
