Yesterday, via Kottke, I read an article in the NY Times by Michael Pollen directed at our current presidential candidates. The jist is that our food system is broken and one of you has the chance to begin fixing it. Change will be opposed, but this can easily be presented as a win for multiple (quite varied) interest groups: granola-eating, liberal hippies would support it, evangelical homeschoolers would support it and big gov't/business-hating libertarians would support it.
Today I discover (also via Kottke) that one of the candidates actually read Pollen's piece ... and that gives me hope.
