This show makes my head spin. I am literally dizzy with her talking and trying to be serious and giggling and whatnot. I had to take three Advils after the Will Ferrel (G*d Bless Him) episode of Socrates explaining democracy. They said democracy is a problem because of the uninformed voter who gets tricked by the snake-oil salesmen. Okay maybe that's true with the Clinton family, but when Sarah brings up how elitists would only have the right to vote, she's ignoring how we currently have a Congress of so-called intellectuals from Yale Harvard Duke Colombia. The Elite. It seems every President has to have a law degree, belong to one of those G*d awful fraternities, have wealthy connections, and be nominated by one of two political parties. Americans can barely vote for a President who wasn't born between May and August, let alone some poor shlub who isn't camera friendly.
I don't want to get all haughty and swear by that "Philosopher King" dribble, but can you imagine a group leadership of poets, musicians, sculpters, philosophers and whatnot? People's whose greatest achievements have come from passion. A Passion that shapes their purpose in life. A congress of artisans who know that innovation comes from working together. I think it's beautiful. Let's do that.
The big bupkes 'I Love You America' overlooked was "Majority Voting". Our beautiful country is a Republic, because we already know the errors of full democracies. How can Sarah grow up a nice Jewish girl in New Hampshire, a minority to the neighbors around her, and not know how democracy hurts minorities? A classroom with the sweet little babies voting for which play to perform that year; My heart goes out to the little Jewish girl Sarah who just wants to sing the songs from 'Les Miserables', but the rest of class wants to do 'Frosty The Snowman'. You're outvoted, nothing you can do. You look to your teacher as the authority figure to do the right thing, but no honey, it's not fair. IT'S A DEMOCRACY. We have to do 'Frosty The Snowman'.
