We must resist the temptation to reduce our American experiment to an ideology. We cannot allow this bait-and-switch tactic to lead us to the mirage of a collectivist utopia
Forget about the debate the government parties and the geriatric media want us to have, "Are you a Republican or a Democrat?" The debate we need to have concerns what we were meant to be, not who they tell us we should be. Instead we should discuss issues of substance such as, "Are we a Republic or a Democracy?" for this will lead us to the truth. In today's polarized political atmosphere conservatives shout "Republic!" while progressives scream, "Democracy!"
