There is nothing we can do except educate the electorate. My point about evolution is that if a person cannot figue out evolution (which is pretty simple) how are they going to tell the difference between a smart decent man like say George MacGovern and a venal criminal like Nixon. They can't and didn't and don't. The only thing we can do is institute major educational programs across the country. Free education from the age of 2.5 years through a PHD. A democracy is only as good as the electorate. <<b]Let's try this a different way. Perhaps you could try just coming right out and saying what you think to be dangerous to society about our legal system as it exists, how you would propose changing it, and to what ends.
