My Michelle Moment: America Does Itself Proud

American democracy is a tattered thing.  One could devote a lifetime to describing its major failings, many of which are baked right into the institutional structure of the practice. 

American democracy is a heartbreaking thing.  To be a progressive, caring citizen of this country is to live a life of almost unmitigated disappointment and startling affronts to a compassionate moral code. 

American democracy is a chimerical thing.  In my half-century on this planet I'm not particularly sure it has ever quite shown up in any serious fashion.
