A concerned observer of our declining democratic fortunes who is diligently seeking a solution to return true democracy to the USA, I believe that "We the People" need to unite behind a strategy for action.
My philosophy is:
"Patriotism means to stand by the country; it does not mean to stand by the president or any other public official
. . . . It is patriotic to support
him insofar as he efficiently serves the country.
It is unpatriotic not to oppose him [if] he fails
in his duty to stand by the country."
- Teddy Roosevelt
"It is not the function of our government
to keep the citizen from falling into error;
it is the function of the citizen to keep the
government from falling into error."
- U. S. Supreme Court Justice Robert Houghwout Jackson
