Convention backdrop: America: A stronger America?
I'm watching Larry King right now. Mo Rocca just walked by the backdrop. To me, America A Stronger America is, er, slightly redundant. Couldn't they simply have said A Stronger America? Or America: A Stronger Union?

As a copywriter, I would never have let that headline/subhead combination pass. Or am I being too nitpicky?

1. they're just pandering to *'s proclivity to appeal
to the lowest common denominator. Yes it is redundant. Yes it is simplistic. Yes this is the only talent that * has seeemingly mastered. The vaccuous and disingenuous one liner.

Yes I will forever believe that wisdom trumps strength.

But what the heck do I know?
