Ender's Game: Learning from the Enemy



There is a lot one can get from Orson Scott Card's Ender's Game. I just read it for the first time. There is something profound and, at the same time, unsettling about this line:
"There is no teacher but the enemy. No one but the enemy will tell you what the enemy is going to do. No one but the enemy will ever teach you how to destroy and conquer. Only the enemy shows you where you are weak. Only the enemy tells you where he is strong. And the rules of the game are what you can do to him and what you can stop him from doing to you."
I'd love to know what others think about this Mazer Rackham quote.

Orson Scott Card talks about "Ender in Exile"

This is how good Americans will win the culture back from the radical Left.



Politics has its place, but as long as good Americans let people like Michael Moore, Tim Robbins, George Clooney, Paul Hagis, Brian Ee Palma, et al.

America would be a much better place with more Democrats like Orson Scott Card.

And, yes, Mr. Card is a Democrat.
