Reply #3: History is repeating due to the inherant weaknesses in

[Jose Diablo]

republic form of governance. You can see it in the symbols of the republic laid at it's founding. This country isn't democratic per sey, it's a representative republic. In a republic form of government, the representatives can be turned by special interests to represent them at the expence of everyone else.

Saying "The people" caused this in Roman history is a cop out for the "weak" representatives. I'm not accepting responsibility for some weak Chambliss, just because the powers to be managed to steal the election for him by manipulating the voting machines. Our agents of the government are not representatives of "The People" just like in ancient Rome, those representatives didn't represent "The people".

Same thing playing out as the inherant weak point in a republic. Power corrupts, it's human weakness at it's core. The nature of the beast.

And if we examine the conduct of our government over time, we see it as a empire, modeled on Rome. Consuming ever larger parts of the world, because that was the dreams of the founders, more power for themselves.

I see no reason to rah-rah America. I've woke from the nightmare dream placed on us. We the people should change this government to better represent our interests.
