For national unity

As I watched the news clip of Hillary Clinton announcing that she was ending her bid for the US presidency and endorsing Barack Obama, I couldn't help contrast this with how election candidates here react to their own losses. Instead of stepping down graciously and supporting the other candidate for the sake of unity, they refuse to admit defeat and tend to channel their bitterness toward doing their best to thwart the winner's own efforts to put their plans to work when they do assume office. It's no wonder this country isn't making any progress no matter who wins the elections.
