Yes. A hard lesson for us to learn. A friend of mine commented to me the other day that he thinks Americans have now gotten a taste of what a dictatorship might look like, and they don't like it! Seems to me that the best way to tend to democracy right now is to win this election. Then we can dig in to all the urgent issues where we need government action, and pressure the government to do its job!
Bravo! This is a great call to action. I look forward to reading more.
Thanks Marilyn for this inspiring piece. Particularly this: "democracy needs us to tend to it..."
