Democracy is as good as its participants. An informed, interested & engaged citizen is the lifeline of a healthy society. A liberal citizen is vital to our American democracy as a conduit for progress. This liberal citizen advocates humanism, scientific reason, and a progressive culture of life.

Yes, I think this is an obligation we have to humanity. There's a benefit for the greater good if we help each other instead of adding to the misery.
In practical terms, and in the realm of US politics, I do believe the likes of Sarah Palin will bring much misery to us and the world is she's elected, but I would like to believe that the voters (most of them anyway) wouldn't fall for such a person. We'll see.
I said before that this GOP needs to get a couple big defeats to decide the extremists that are in charge right now should be booted out. We need a modern, sensible Republican party.
