We need to renovate our democracy to achieve a great pulling together. The deepest truth of this work is that you can’t have a democracy unless people want one. And right now, the kids don’t particularly want a democracy. This means that we are failing at one of our greatest responsibilities: generational succession. Rebooting civic education is about refurbishing and regifting an inheritance.

Civics education was horrible in the fifties and sixties, at least before college level.
Has it gotten even worse?
