Why are Americans so angry?
The really shocking bit of data is near the end -- many Americans would be deeply upset if their child were to marry someone of the opposite political party.  This is making politics <i>way too personal</i>!  I&#x27;m not sure how the country is going to recover from this state of polarization.  The media isn&#x27;t helping, and none of the current crop of political candidates seem to be addressing the need to rebuild the American consensus held in past generations, although this might change once the primaries are over.
