Change Is Hard

Imagine you are a patient in a medical practice with two physicians. For going on four years, the older doctor you see has never fixed any of your health problems, although he seems to have all the answers so you stick with him. Besides, he's a nice guy and you don't want to hurt his feelings. 

His younger partner is even worse, and the few times you have met with him made you feel better about your primary physician. Despite the fact that both of them are just mediocre and seem to rely on the Internet for all their treatments, your small town has no options other than a walk-in clinic and the local ER. 

One day a new doctor comes to town, and you start hearing from people that he did an excellent good job at his last place of employment. But you're stuck in your ways, and you've got a long history with your doctor. Then suddenly he announces his impending retirement, explaining that his partner will take over the practice, along with a young upstart fresh from medical school. What do you do?

If you stick with the doctor you know just because change is hard, vote for Kamala Harris. After all, the Democrats haven't killed you yet. (But there is still time.)
