A Kierkegaardian Reflection on the Upcoming Election

As I begin research for my undergraduate thesis, I am knee-deep in Kierkegaard and political studies. Hopefully that will spill into content for this neglected blog, but in the meantime here is a quote I find most apt to our current situation. I'll allow the reader to draw implications.


"According to its definition, 'the crowd' is always misled--for if it is genuinely led, there is no crowd; where there is genuine leading, eternally understood, there is no crowd."
--Journals, V. III, #2935
