My view of our culture is that we may win this battle but we lost the war decades ago.

***********************************************************

Perhaps but if true the blame can be laid directly at the feet of the electorate. We have a system which calls for a government of, by and for the people and one chosen in a free election process. There is also a provision to remove the government in our Declaration of Independence. Here is what it says in part:

"But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security."

This bar has been met and the time for action is now.

Amen! The "electorate" is interchangeable with "culture".

Moreso, there is a provision on the USC for removing and replacing the government (Article V) in its entirety.
