The relation between the One and the Many is an insidious relation. As simple as it looks, it can create many confusions. Most, if not all , are linguistic. Once we enter the linguistic domain we enter the linguistic, orderly and logical, albeit, insidous domain of abstraction. The insidious aspect of abstraction is its 'removal' from the real or concrete. Of course,abstraction is an important aspect of the thinking brain. We cannot survive without it, but it should not remove us from reality. How do we struggle against this? It must be done on an individual basis. If not, we fall into linguistic generalities that free-float in the social and the body politic. Of course, for organizational purposes these generalities are necessary. Nevertheless, they should not transport us into a 'social imaginary' that produces social inertia. We all recognize the tendency to 'live' removed from reality. But, we cannot fall victims to abstract and definitional 'party politics'. You and I are real. The 'social and polity' are high level abstractions. The 'word play' between the Top and the Bottom is tremendous. It becomes important to 'look for' a candidate for the Top rung of the political that is the most 'sincere'.A careful analysis of the terms used by politicions can help us determine the 'sincerity' of a candidate or the democratic nature of a Party position. We are at the Bottom of the 'ship of state' but that doesn't mean we can't keep a critical eye on the navigators. We put them there, and we can remove them. Thats democracy. Its important that the Third Branch of government use 'interpretive practices' that are impartial. Thats not a frivolous suggestion. The 'interpretive' branch must become more exacting in their interpretation of the relation between the Top and the Bottom. Surely, they understand the insiduous nature of linguistic abstractions. Surely, they understand the triadic nature of government. Surely they understand that the Top is dependent on the Bottom. The Bottom is not only 'real' ,it is constituted by millions of 'real' people. In their condition of togethernes, not a single one losses or compromises his/her 'life' or integrity as a human being. Its time the Top begins to understand that its the Bottom that matters. And it's time the Third Branch begins to see that they must be impartial. Don't get me wrong, linguistic abstractions are necessary and very important but no human being can 'live' in them. Sh/he can only formulate them. Lets use them in our condition of togetherness, but 'lets get a life'.
