And precisely what is "wrong" with framing? I used to be extremely frustrated that one political party was expert at framing the issues to their advantage, while the competing party was completely oblivious and would constantly "lose" in public debates - causing many to vote against their own self-interests. (Currently I don't give a hoot as I believe that the entire political process in this country simply reflects the outward signs of a failed system.)
It's not hard to spot framing, which is pretty much the basis for all advertising done in the last 100 years in this country. What I find to be far more frustrating is simple evasion. How many times have you seen any politician actually deliver a straight, unambiguous answer to a "yes or no" question? (And if by some miracle they actually do so, it is always less than 12 hours before they begin to "walk back" their previous answer. YMMV,
