Democracy in America in the 21st Century

Welcome to this forum. Over time, I will post what I hope will be engaging posts and interesting links about the state of Democracy in America in the 21st Century. Much has changed since my first treatise was published in 1835, and much has been lost about the greatness of the American experiment in democracy. Any questions or comments about the site that you want kept private can be emailed to alexis.redux@gmail.com.

On politics, a new Presidential candidate

I'm going to delve into the region of politics briefly. Whatever your political bent, please read the following and then look into it for yourselves.

In this republic turned democracy of ours, there have been very few Presidents and candidates for President who have affirmed their committment to follow the constitution in the exercise of their duties. Grover Cleveland was probably the last one and he was in office over one hundred years ago.

This past week, Ron Paul announced his candidacy for President once again. Unfortunately, with all that is against him, he stands little chance to be elected; yet, he is the one candidate that would change the direction this country has taken over the last hundred years. Still, he deserves a look for all freedom loving Americans.
