Our democracy is much stronger than those other societies she described. In a year we'll likely have a democrat in office and all of Bush's frightening policies will slowly fade away. No more presidential signing statements, no more torture camps, no more " Us vs Them" nonsense.

- Nah with a Dem in the office all the black helicopter one world government freaks will come back...TheBlueOne
- I'm not sure. The democratic takeover of the senate didn't really made a change anywhere as well.rabattski

Due to the overwhelming indoctination of the majority of people in the system I dont have much hope.. Great to see someone speaking up loudly about it though... If the majority of people dont wake up and do something, well, I guess in some way they will get what they deserve.
As for the republican vs democrat argument, have a read about the Hegelian dialectic and then decide if you have any choice..

ffs, we're a REPUBLIC, not a democracy! she's making some interesting points, but she keeps equating our government to a "democracy," and it's like nails on a chalkboard. we're not trying to sustain a democracy; a republic is far more preferable, and it's what our nation's founders designed.

sorry about the mini-rant, and feel free to correct me if you think i'm wrong. thanks for posting this video, dobs.
- I think it is just semantics that bother you about this. You are somewhat correct though IMO.mrdobolina
- All republics are in some sense democratic, not all democracies are republics.TheBlueOne
- i'd rather be technical and semantically nitpicky about the government. give 'em an inch and all that.ender79

i think she was on the colbert report a while ago. was a funny interview.

btw, this is not a partisan issue.
- mrdobolina0
At about 25 minutes in this interview she explains a few great reasons why it isn't a partisan issue.

Why the hell does she clap at the end of the first video?
She has an interesting opinion, I just wish she'd covered it in the 15 minutes it required rather than blabbering on for 47 whole bloody minutes.
- well. She is getting paid by the hour, so...
But she pointed out some really interesting stuff nonethelessalla
