I just got through watching RP's reaction video after the vote...And it dawned on me that We, The People just possibly pulled off our own campaign of "Shock and Awe" proving to the government, the media, and the rest of the world that We, The People are not just subjects to be governed. This is exactly how 'democracy' should be spread throughout the world, by example and not by force!

But don't stop now, we have to make sure that our representative government knows that we are going to keep their feet to the fire from here on out!

You used the word "democracy"....may I politely correct you by reminding you that we live in a REPUBLIC, not a democracy. Democracy is "mob rule". In a republic, the people are represented in governent, and the minority is protected by the tyranny of the majority.
