You can govern yourself. You can govern with others. You can learn about political planks and political platforms, how to do governance, and about political organization. It's about active citizenship, civics, a more perfect union, and we the people. It's about participation. So, the focus of these many posts is on democracy, justice, citizenship, governance, co-operation, and democracy.
Governance With RCS: : It Is Abdication Of Americans
Governance With RCS: : Can It Be Too Late?
Can It Be Too Late?
Why have a majority of recent generations of Americans refused the responsibility for the governance of America? Have their parents and teachers failed them? Why have they failed to learn the workings of our laws? Why have they seemed to have failed to understand the working of the rules of democracy and of American republicanism? Why are they not using our system for governing ourselves. Why have they so easily given up their governance?
O when will they ever learn? It has become very late?

It Is Abdication Of Americans
Americans and others have not only given up their citizenship responsibilities, but have given up their responsibility for helping their children and youth to be effective members of society. The have the excuse that their parents did not carry out their parenting responsibility. Also that the help of professional educators and others was scares.
Have you noticed any results?

Due Process !!!
The United States of America is losing its status as a republic.
When a judge can be arrested without due process, what have we become. With such lawlessness there is no republic. What hope is there for democracy where the people refuse to govern. There may be a time when it is to late for citizens to learn.

Abdication by American Citizens
Why do you think that American citizens have abdicated their citizenship?
What do you believe is the nature of our citizenship?
How are the rights and responsibilities of citizenship carried out in a republic?
How did you learn of your rights and responsibilities of citizenship.
Who is responsible for the actions of your representatives?
Why have so many have so valued republicanism and democracy so highly?
How have you learned the nature of your governance? Did you learn from your parents? Did you learn from your school? What have you done in the company of other citizens to learn to govern yourselves. Why did others before you choose democracy and republicanism to govern themselves? How did they work their citizenship?

Good Work by President Trump Together We Stand!
President Trump is doing much good, important work! However, the why he is doing it may do much damage to this Republic. That is not his fault. It is our fault: the fault of US citizenry. In this Republic we decided to use representatives. We have not been using them. We turned them loose without our support, guidance, control, or anything! Without our active support our representatives lose their power and we lose and we without their service lose our republic. Without our republic we can become powns, slaves, useless, or... Together actively nominating, electing, supporting, and using our representatives well we stand. Without working our republic can we even be we.
We are very important. We benefit by thinking more about us and talking more about us and how to support one another and our representatives. Doing so makes us effective citizens and the better part of Our Republic.

The quality and effectiveness of our representatives is our responsibility. Their ability and wisdom is up to us.
