A few years ago, I had a disagreement with my local Democracy for America group. They were still under the notion that politics were still locally based and what is best for the people on a local level.

With everything we've seen in politics and the media, can we please give up the notion that people care and are locally focused when it concerns their ideas and their votes?

By all means, PLEASE do.  :)

Just who's fault is it that all politics is no longer local? I will give you a hint they are the ones who want to empower the federal government to control everything in our lives.
