CNN has been asking its contributors to answer the question: "Why is our government so broken?" Yesterday, I posted an op-ed by LZ Granderson who places a great deal of the blame on us - the voters. Today, David Gergen presents a similar, though slightly more circumspect, argument that the American People do deserve some of the blame for the current dysfunction, and have the power to fix it.
As a rule, I generally HATE Mr. Gergen's waxing on politics since his own ideology skews much further to the right than my own. However, he paints a very comprehensive and believable picture of the state of politics right now - explaining how we got here and how we can get out of it - noting that the process for reform has already begun.
It's a very interesting read.
