The Responsibility is Ours

If we want principled, courageous elected officials, we need to be principled, courageous, and tenacious ourselves. History has demonstrated that our elected officials are not the leaders--the leadership has to come from us. If we don't insist, if we don't persist, then we are not living up to our responsibilities as citizens in a democracy--and our responsibilities as moral human beings.

~ Ross C. "Rocky" Anderson, Mayor of Salt Lake City, UT ~
