Beginning Again Now
Let’s Teach American Civic History and Values
For future presidential level success, I think, Democrats will have to win control of at least the US House of Representatives in 2026 and the US Senate if possible.
In practice, the “campaign,” beginning again now, however, has to be about invigorating democracy, not merely electing a president.
Separate from supporting candidates and issues, a new independent national civic institution should create a national public education campaign beginning again now to teach people about American civic history and values. Celebrities, “influencers,” people from all walks of life, officeholders and office aspirants should be asked to participate because no other success is as important.
2025 Semiquincentennial ceremonies and observances are timely opportunities.
