Excellent opportunity for our side to educate the voters.

They would not believe us. It is too complicated for them to understand. A Republic, a representative republic, is only for thinking people. Management and accountability of elected representatives requires thought and effort. We have little or none of either present in a lot of the population. We have also lost the premise of control, management and accountability. Why else would so many candidates be unopposed?

It is, but will anyone going to inform the ignorant what the truth is?

That was my first thought as well, and then I thought of the likely responses of many CNN viewers!

"What a bunch of ignorant Trump Supporters...they don't even know we live in a democracy!"

Oh, wait...

I am glad that you brought that up. Each year I ask my Congress Critter (Clyde-GA) for copies of The US Constitution with The Declaration of Independence. I just received my 2 dozen copies last week and probably will run out of them by the end of the month.

I try my best to educate Teens and early 20’s kind about the Constitution. I have found Memorial Day, Independence Day, and today’s Flag Day relevant for terms for speaking to them about our great country.

I quiz them on it and make it fun for all. It goes over well. I probably have given out over 200 copies in the past few years.
