The 'soul' of this nation, if indeed nations can or do have souls, is schizophrenic. 

 "Schizophrenia is a mental disorder characterized by abnormal social behavior and failure to understand what is real.  Common symptoms include false beliefs, unclear or confused thinking, hearing voices that others do not, reduced social engagement and emotional expression, and a lack of motivation."

And it also afflicts thousands if not millions of members of both political parties!
