I think Americans are realizing that democracy is a participation sport, and the the government is ours if we want it to be. I feel like we got complacent and hoped some other third party would do the work for us. Seems like we have to learn that lesson every generation.
I thought we had learned our lesson with the debacle of the Nixon administrations, and it seemed like we had for a while, but history is not only repeating itself, it is now making the Nixon admins look like they weren’t so bad. So now, we have to learn all over again, and retain our democracy.
