If you Cannot Convince Them........

Some people have the "correct answers."  They have the truth, goods, best idea, best directions and more.  However, they are unable to convince someone else.  Sometimes those who have the aforementioned also have a bad attitude, arrogance, an inability to win people over, or are poor communicators.  The man who said, "If you can't convince them, confuse them," was in politics.  I consider politics necessary.  But it can also be a brutal and dirty business.  Politics is a struggle for power.  It can be war.  Like some say: "All is fair in love and war."  Often times it is a war of egoes.  Apparently it is a competitive situation when if you are unable to convince, you must confuse.  It sounds vindictive.  Maybe it is just a political  strategy.  The man who made that quote was the 33rd President of the United States......... Harry S. Truman.
