Washington Post: A Return to the Progressive Era for America

I ask any who pass by this page to read this article twice. It is not very long, but it contains the best explanations of the problems that this site hopes to clarify and also contains the best basis of a solution which I have heard up to this point.

The author gives a brief explanation of what force bound American heroes like Teddy Roosevelt, Governor Robert LaFollette, and Chief Justice Earl Warren (Republicans from back when reason ruled the GOP) together and what made them better than their present day succesors. This piece combines cogent examination with cautious optimism. Put simply, I love it. Please read it.
