Democracy Is Dead Folks (America)

Unless we can get the money out of politics, America is not a Democracy. It is an auction. It now appears that the next president will welcome more money in politics, and will definitely not fight tooth and nail to remove it.

Jefferson, Washington, and Adams are having a sad.

It is now up to us.

Democracy Spring or Bust.

Who's on board?
