As soon as I read the title I knew this was going to be another propaganda piece: "How to fix American democracy". Folks, it isn't a democracy. It's a representative republic. Sure enough, as we delve into the article we come across the first suggestion: Require everyone to vote. Why? It's a right, not an obligation. Then comes a suggestion to institute a new high school course: Identity 101. Just what we need, more identity politics, more indoctrination of our children. How about one month without social media? That's right. Shut up and let your betters explain things to you. You know, those "journalists" of the ideological left. Sorry, I couldn't make it further. I'll have to take your word for it that there are a couple of these that's aren't really bad...
[Addendum: Okay, I forced myself to look and saw that it only got worse. Things like eliminate private education (force children into the public indoctrination centers), teach "critical thinking" (the mantra of the progressive Left), establish "National Unity Week" (shades of Orwell's "1984")... I knew I shouldn't have looked]

Not one article on the electoral system and why the Founders developed it or an article on the Constitution. I have an idea and it would not take 38 individual articles. Everyone should read and understand the US Constitution. The reason these authors posted 38 individual articles is simple: they don't like the US Constitution.
