Information on Political Issues

Democracy and representative government depend on educated and informed citizens. If citizens are not educated in the fundamentals of government, and not informed on important issues of the day, they may be influenced and controlled by unscrupulous people who want to use government for their own purposes. Citizens who aspire to become educated and informed face many obstacles. One of these obstacles is a public education system that may have failed to teach many citizens about civics. Education reform is a current issue in American politics. Those who wish to become informed current affairs may have difficulty finding news sources that provide objective information.
