Political stance/affiliation?
[edit]Does anyone know his political stance or party affiliation? Democrat? If his character Nathan Petrelli on Heroes TV Series reflects his ideals, it seems that he does not have a favorable view of politicians, perhaps. It seems like Petrelli is a democrat, but I cannot be sure. Can anyone offer insight? Thanks. Steviedpeele 04:08, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
- Touch_(2012_TV_series) does not seem to be political. Charles Edwin Shipp (talk) 12:36, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
Inspiration?
[edit]Volos. Greece. 2002-3. English and Computer teacher. Energeia. Jackobiel. Egregor. Mean anything to Tim Kring or Jeph Loeb? If yes: sxatzi@hotmail.com , and thank you.
- A lot of inspiration has gone into Touch_(2012_TV_series), apparently from Kring's Jewish knowledge. As LDS, I'm loving it! Charles Edwin Shipp (talk) 12:43, 10 June 2012 (UTC)

He obviously believes in synchronicity
