The article’s foundation is built upon the characteristic of flip-flopping.  According to Roger Cohen, flip-flopping is when a person who advocates for one issue but he later changes his views and becomes against the issue.  This characteristic is often shown in politicians.  To gain votes, they appeal to the beliefs of their voters.  This generation no longer contains consistency; it is situational.  The politician’s beliefs depend on the situation and which audience they would like to appeal to.  Flip- flopping is a significant issue in today’s society.
