MENTAL HEALTH AND PSYCHOLOGY ARE RELEVANT ISSUES
Intuitively most voters would agree that mental health and psychology are relevant to politics. However, most people avoid these issues thinking that they are topics best left to professionals. Mental health, psychology and character would be discussed more often in the public sphere except for the fact that professionals have ethical codes that limit their ability to comment on the mental health and psychological traits of people they have or have not met. Nevertheless, many professionals have seen fit to report about these traits in general terms that are detailed enough to equip voters to make their own informed judgements about politicians’ mental health, psychology and character from what they observe with their own eyes and ears. How to interpret these traits in real time and apply professional knowledge about them to politicians and voters is the meat of this website.

Voters are not mental health professionals but those who are willing to study to come to understanding of mental health and psychology basic are smart enough to apply what they learn in this website next time they vote.  When that happens, America will be on its way to healing the social/political/education/economic divides that frustrate all Americans. Healing can happen only when judgments about politicians’ mental health and character become normal and supersede the historical values of policy and party loyalty when voting. Change won’t happen in one election or even in one generation, but it will happen if voters get smart about mental health and character as political issues.
