How do we persuade others to get involved? Rationally, I think it is clear that we are going to be limited in what we can accomplish on our own. If we are unhappy with the status quo, working with others to change it is going to be required. I suspect that many people know this and that there are other more emotional things that get in their way. What you said about some of it sounding like religion or church is a good example. Some of us had such bad experiences with these things that anything that reminds us of them is to be avoided. I catch myself doing this at times. It isn't even conscious but more of a visceral "yuck" reaction. I have to work at setting it aside.

Our presidents are not dictators (yet), and there is only so much they can do when facing an effective opposition party. The Democrats still haven't figured out how to be an effective opposition party, but the Republicans haven't had that problem.
