He's a polarizing figure - one of the keys to his success really. But in today's world people are quite polarized - a tow truck driver refuses to help a stranded lady because she had a sticker of a politician the guy didn't like. This is the world now. You pick a team and you utterly hate loathe and despise anyone who doesn't where the same color. It didn't used to be that way.

I confess it's even difficult for me - because I associate one colour with Neo Nazis who all vote one color. And if I'm on a team and I look at the company I am keeping - then an intelligent person should look around and say - gee is the party of Hitler lovers the party I want to be linked to? And if they all love the party - then perhaps there is something wrong with said party.

Indeed, Moore's time in Germany may have been the most poignant part of the film about race relations in the U.S. today.
