Could.

Also indicates that wisdom knows what belongs to whom, because at some point people have to choose.

The odd thing about America is that a government of representatives means that we collectively are Caesar; or could be, or should be. Which of course makes us all the more culpable.

Once we turn the reins over to a Caesar, we will have to give him what is his. Talk about your slippery slope.

The American Revolution was one of a long chain of miracles that made America possible. It would be presumptuous to assume a second one would work out the same.

Wow. Well written. I’m jealous. :) And you are right. Lightening striking twice is difficult.
Perhaps if we survive the next 20 months somehow, Cruz could save us from needing another violent revolution and save the republic.

Quite right. We The People are supposedly the sovereign.

It is way past time to reassert self-government.
