Last summer I wrote an article discussing the failure of U.S. Public Education in preparing its customers (students) to assume the responsibility of making informed, reasoned decisions leading to the election of political leaders who will successfully act in the best interests of the country. A recent California (State) Appellate Court decision threatens not only the Home School movement within the state, but potentially, if appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court, to the use of this alternative method of education, throughout the nation.
If these conjectures regarding how political leaders are elected, and the process by which once in office, they make decisions, are correct, then it would follow that the targets of activist efforts are not the incumbents, but instead those that elect them. We must insure that those we elect are both intellectually qualified and have the integrity upon which we can place our trust in them.
Collectively, those who have both the passion and the energy to have engaged in these failed strategies, have the brain power to change the quality of decisions made by the voters. Moreover, the involvement of all qualified to vote, rather than the number currently seen, is essential to this process.
