Did you ... suppose democracy was only for elections, for politics, and for a party name? I say democracy is only of use there that it may pass on and come to its flower and fruit in manners, in the highest forms of interaction ... in religion, literature, colleges and schools: Democracy in all public and private life.
Do you think voters have a right to information about all of their options at the ballot box? Can we call our process a democratic one when the political parties already in power control who speaks to voters and how often they speak? Without a fair and open debate process as well as unbiased media coverage, many voters are ill equipped to choose the candidate that best reflects their choice - we need profound election reform now!
