1. THE DEMOCRACY AGENDA

Should they win this election and garner a real Senate majority, Democrats should announce a “Democracy Agenda,” one designed to better deliver the promise of American democracy to its citizens. >>>

2. That's the ticket!

Maybe we could say we are trying to be "fair and balanced."

4. Along with the democracy agenda I'd like to see democracy

community centers that focus on civics education and more, democracy gardens and parks, democracy universities (there's a 'Liberty Univ.') and a democracy museum on the national mall. This era is a huge test for the survival of western liberal democracy.

5. Works for me.

Restructuring will make handling COVID-19 and climate crises controls much easier.

Democrats have to focus, ignore immediate Trumpism noise and investigative machinery and make this happen.
