Gail, you are so right! There are no doubt few who can't name the latest contestant on American Idol or the latest MVP on some sports team-but there are few who CAN name their state representative-or who know what a state representative is! The charlatans and champions of mediocrity and mendacity who infest Congress and the state legislators were elected by.....us (including by those who didn't vote). They in turn appoint the judges and bureaucrats who increasingly run our lives. Thus, those of us who try to make a difference, who support candidates who are a cut above the norm and who respect the Constitution, are at a decided disadvantage. The skillful pitting of various artificial groups-each claiming their precious entitlements-will be our doom. As I believe Samuel Adams said, (I can only paraphrase, can't remember the exact quote), as soon as citizens figure out how to help themselves to the public treasury, the Republic is lost.
