a thoughtful and cogent analysis...

a few points of difference, however-

i have seen a number of posts that i would consider to be from heart/head posters- who have already begun to articulate a clear understanding that the message needed and needs to be enfranchisement for all... and that the urgency is so compelling that the only effect time will have is to bury it, not allow it flower.

if we let this go, imho, we face a MSM invested in pointing us the other way, a majority republican legislature that cannot investigate itself and the executive baranch, and a sub rosa tactical advantage, practiced over three federal elections in four years that now enables them to steal the vote.

i deeply respect your analysis, and think it has merits. from an historical perspective, no country has ever existed like the US before in history- 50 states and a federal tri-cameral govenrment balanced perfectly (precariously, too). And if history tells us anything, it doesn't tell us that the above circumstances will arrest hubris, it will only nurture it.

the closest we've ever come to an analogy is Nixon, and the role of the legistlative branch, the will and intent were completely unlike what we have today. couple that with the ability to control the way votes are cast and counted...

so, 'umbly, i gotta say look for the heart/heads, and kick ass now, before it is too late. and it is nearly too late.
