    We will do that when we rebuild from the rubble and reinvent government again. Til then, we need practical action now to preserve lives, not ineffectual righteous exhortation.

    Unless you have a concrete plan to enact sweeping electoral process changes within our current system. That’s sort of the problem, our system is designed to resist change.

    Sorry to be curt, but we all know there are better ways to enact democracy. Being right about the way we should have been voting all along helps no one.

      Fortunately Trump is helpfully taking a sledgehammer to the whole thing, so there’s an opening for this kind of sweeping reform but the work for that starts now.
