I am not sure what you are referring to when you mention democrats wash in their hands of systemic changes needed.

I do think that a lot more restrictions on behaviors by candidates and more analysis as to how the Supreme Court and the electoral college are set up and operate are warranted. Is this part of what you are referencing?

Thank you for replying

Great post Tom. Let's move beyond sheer raw partisanship and engage in robust discussion. Yes, both sides are to blame, but instead of pointing fingers, let us resolve to look within ourselves and our respective political party to save our country.

Unfortunately the GOP s murderous rage and yearning for blood has already been raging for years. It has been baked into their platform and candidates. A GOP President wanted to lead a weapon armed mob to kill legislators and his vice president. A GOP Texas governor refuses to stop the selling of Military style weapons. I am afraid for our future Tom. Don't lecture about the Democrat s. They are not threatening to kill anyone.

I don’t often agree with many of your posts and positions. I agree with this summary: “ In short, we as citizens are enablers. We give too little thought and less action to the responsibilities each of us has to our country, our communities and our fellow citizens. The question isn’t whether America can change course; rather, it is whether we are willing to accept the consequences of not meeting the challenges that healing our fractured country require.“

America has not been perfect and will not be perfect in the future, but we do seem to be able to figure out a better way moving forward.
