Political Agnostics

The agnostics of modern politics are at the center.  Staking a position of non adherence, the center picks and chooses between what is perceived of significance: truth, falseness, and hence of value. The battle on this earth is for this elusive center.  They shift to and fro depending on the cause, the issue, or the belief.  These agnostics discriminate, not having allegiance to a dogma.  Something like a school of fish they can change course on the slightest alert, causing the predators (left or right) unlimited grief. The agnostics of politics, i.e. the center, have always been the breach within political discourse, and now has become the prime decision factor in elections.  What is distressing is that the polarity of politics has created the importance of this variable center, a fact neither the left nor the right fully understand.
