Until the industrial age slowly destroyed America, clergy were great contributers in politics, writing, science, philosophy, etc. Jimmy Carter, was the last of that great breed, a Minister, Naval Officer, farmer and humanitarian. And to this day, MAGA mocks him.

Also worth repeating: Mamdani's greatest power isn't something just anyone can learn or emulate. He's got an entire PHILOSOPHY and MORAL CORE based on care over punishment that informs everything he says and does. Without that, the charisma means nothing.

This is absolutely Mamdani's not-so-secret secret power: he knows who he is and what he believes and he wants to help ALL of us. So you can't trip him up with a trick question; you can't get a fake note out of him. BECAUSE HE HAS NOTHING TO HIDE AND HE'S DONE THE READING AND HE'S HERE FOR US.
100 percent. I think he benefits from what most great orators benefit from: he knows himself—and more importantly, he talks to (and understands) what moves people. And, as far as I can tell, he believes what he’s saying.

“Belief polarization” is driving the shutdown more than political disagreement, according to a philosopher. Like-minded people become more extreme versions of themselves, not because of evidence, but because they want to fit in with their peers.
Blame the shutdown on citizens who prefer politicians to vanquish their opponents rather than to work for the common good
Politicians get blamed for government shutdowns. But does the fault lie also with citizens, who are more invested in punishing partisan rivals than in demanding competent government?
