What is meritocracy? There is a chasm on how they/we measure: character, conduct, honor, esteem, or virtue that is "deserving reward".

Think twice when you hear the word meritocracy and listen. Does it provide for WE THE PEOPLE (all of us), or is it meant as a like minded members only club?

Is *this* the thing that will finally rouse the tens of millions of eligible voters who were too apathetic to get off the couch in November?

Does "we the people" still exist for our chosen leaders?

Immigration, abortion, the economy... are these smoke screens obscuring bigger goals of "me" vs "we" or money vs not money (and by money we're talking the centimillionaire/billionaire kind)?
