True question....Was there a public debate before the US entered WWII, when attacked at Pearl Harbor by the Japanese? If there was one, how was it conducted? And how long did it last? There was no TV or Internet in 1941... just radio.

....concludes there is a moral obligation to insist on a public debate before anything else is done.....
