Change

In times like these, many people stop and take a look at the type of government they are allowing to control their lives. Some people are content with what they see, others see the need for reform and improvement. Our views of political science today limit our ability to understand the full potential of government and the people. Leadership strategy and tactics are accepted rather than challenged and people fail to look at history and learn from it. Our knowledge of government and leadership are limited by modern philosophy when there is so much to be learned from the success of historical predecessors. Perhaps by broadening our understanding of politics and what they can be, we can reform and improve to bring government to its true and full potential. Sometimes understanding our past, better prepares us for the future.
