The American government system is incredibly huge and complex, sophisticated, complicated, muddled and notoriously fragmented yet interrelated, since it consists of hundreds of governments, program by program and place by place. The people themselves have favored moderation; exhibited a fund of common sense, and have displayed the ind of courage that their political leaders have often lacked. The Moderate Party would see itself as a political force to produce national collaboration instead of the present tendency toward centrist stalemate. What people really want is a life of security, stability, and fairness. What this demands of governments is moderation, common sense and courage. | American Government by Charles Bingman, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
