What have come to be seen as "high points" in our political history have some relationship to a common (and difficult) challenge or goal, and to a project in which many if not all of us have been able to participate, one way or another (and on one side or another):
- The American Revolution
- Ending Slavery
- The Civil War
- "Conquering the West"
- Building Unions
- Recovering from the Great Depression
- World War II
- The Civil Rights Movement
- Stopping the War in Vietnam
- Managing our Growth (in local battles)
At least, that's what I think.
