She needs to realize for one she's in the minority opinion. The other she needs to realize that these protests put our military men and women at risk, just like those of Vietnam did.
How so?
Although majority rule is a simple decision rule as between two candidates, there is no principled way to narrow the field down to only two candidates for each office. Nor is there a principled way to draw district lines for Representatives and in many other, more local offices. And the principle which defines the boundaries of the States themselves is neither more nor less than tradition.But we-the-people cannot as a practical matter, even with the current state of technoloy, exercise sovereignty on the day-to-day matters of our Republic, so we exercise our sovereignty only on Election Day. The rest of the time soverignty is exercised in our name by those elected--elected in an imperfect process. Some choose to call it "selected", when that process does not yield the result they individually prefer.
Those who clamor that our representatives do not act in their name, themselves presume to speak in the name of we-the-people. This is a childish tantrum rather than an argument. Whoso lets a tantrum control our government represents me poorly indeed.
Let her tell these people that. Too bad her Pravda buddies in the TV media won't cover this. I'm sick and tired of these clueless twits.
