OUR MISSION

ESPECIALLY IN THESE TROUBLED TIMES,
LEARNING TO LIVE IN A FREE SOCIETY
IS ESSENTIAL TO YOUR SUCCESS

The price of living in a free society is not only civic participation; it is in learning enough to rely on processes essential to the survival of American Democracy.
Great reliance should be placed on critical thinking for the restoration and/or the creation of essential processes that function to serve a free society.
Without our sufficient pursuit of justice, our freedom will be gone.

AT LEAST TWO PARTIES ARE REQUIRED
AN EDITORIAL OF THE
MOTIVATED LEARNERS EDUCATIONAL PRESS (DEEP)

Our American Democracy requires that there are at least two political parties in order to enable the electorate to exercise discipline on its elected representatives. The reality is that elected representatives frequently care more about their power than the appropriate representation of the interests of those whom they purport to represent.
The failure of the Trumpian led the minority party to cooperate in the creation of an independent bipartisan commission to investigate insurrection of January 6, 2021, an insurrection that attacked, the joint session of Congress in the Capitol building, does not really indicate an interest in moving ahead for the benefit of the electorate. Rather, it is an effort to prevent the legislators and the public from understanding the conditions that are undermining our democratic processes. It is obvious that the Trumpian leadership is in pursuit of power at the expense of TRUTH and the legitimate interests of the electorate.

Process and Structure

Cultural change is an evolutionary process. The culture is a structure at a point in time; but it is the process in the biological system of the society that alters structure. That biological system of society is a complex adaptive system marked by inflection points in process that lead to changed characteristics in structure. The changed characteristics and structure are alterations of the environment; a condition that may impact the process.

As the processes adapt to the changed environment, so the changing environment is altered in successive iterations. As the process continues the culture changes. The changes that have been occurring in recent decades have led us to a divisiveness that is a direct attack on mutual dependence. The conventional wisdom is to view the co-evolution of the electorate and the culture as though it had an appropriate correlation dealing with an equality in the rights of representation in the government that are actually expressed in the operation of the republic.

The electoral process distorts the representation of the interests of the voting public on numerous accounts. Aside for the wisdom challenged decision of the Supreme Court permitting excessive contributions to political campaigns by business entities providing them with a personhood that falls short of voting, but yet provides a magnification of the power of the wealthy beyond what already distorts representation, the concentration of power moves forward with denials of voting access such as purging eligibility and other regulations biased toward prevailing political power in the jurisdiction. It further distorts the representation by gerrymandering. To top it off, it uses an electoral college system in which the popular vote of the voters is distorted by counting the votes of the elected legislators rather than the popular vote. Thus, while California and Texas collectively represent about 20% of the nation’s population, they represent only 4% of the Senate. Add to this, the distortion by the gerrymandering, and the popular vote is very interesting, but analytically not determinative of who was elected President of the United States in 2016; and it will not be the determining force for who is elected president in 2020.
