As funny as this video is, I am deeply disturbed by it. We live in a country where we actually get a fair amount of say in how it's run and who we want to run it and yet this is what our democracy has amounted to. I'm first to admit that I had a very limited interest in the political system for most of my life, but in the last few months as I learned more about the life of Alexander Hamilton and subsequently other historical figures like George Washington Thomas Jefferson and Aaron Burr, I have developed a new appreciation for the amount of Freedom we have and why we have it. Unfortunately comma it has also shown me exactly how far we've declined in the education of the general public in this country. I think we created the situation of someone like Trump, not only, running for president but also gaining popularity while doing so.
