what does democracy look like through authoritarian eyes ?
when all you've ever known is rigged elections how would you view an electoral college?
when all you've ever known is control of the legal system how would you view a former US president declaring political persecution ?
when all you've ever known is corruption how would you view campaign donations, PACs and Super PACs ?
we may think Putin sees democracy as a threat to his business but is he actually seeing just a tawdry, inneficient charade trying to muscle in ?
do dictators think we preach democracy because we believe we already have it?
are we satisfied with the status quo of our democracies ?
if not, what are we doing about it ?
and are we communicating we go to war for the democratic values we aspire to, NOT the democracy we have ?
just thinkin.
