    No. It’s by getting involved.

    In a republic like the U.S., the tiniest elections count. Voting for a local mayor, judge, sheriff, state governor, senator or house representative. In fact they may be more important than the president. Also registering to a party and voting in the primaries is an important part of choosing a representative for the party who can potentially become the president.

    As others have pointed out, had people participated, Biden wouldn’t have been picked as the leader had more people participated in the primaries.

    What’s happening right now is a culmination of voter apathy over several decades.

      People who think you can solve the problems at hand by voting on the right person really lack any notion of history
