Quote of the Day

 


Democracy means rule of the people, not rule of monarchs, not rule of the monied, not rule of the mighty. Regardless of party, that means respecting free and fair elections; accepting the outcome, win or lose.  It means you can't love your country only when you win. ~ Joseph R. Biden

Democracy is messy and takes patience, but the process of reaching a consensus between people who have different priorities and experiences makes for a stronger, more resilient country. It's worth the work. And it's built on free and fair elections.
