The midterm elections are too many months away to restore compliance with our constitution and confidence in our national leadership.

Addressing the U.S.’s cultural and economic inequalities effectively will require vastly different leadership than what we have elected to national, state, and local offices recently.

A huge problem is that the ugly implications of America’s mess and their root causes are not generally recognized or understood by our people.

As democracy is currently under internal and external assaults, the sort of leadership now urgently required is the kind that organizes all of our people and directs us toward the public common good.
