We need a new political system that tolerates and respects our differences. We need an America where people are not marginalized on account of their weird or offensive ideas. Let's make room for the Trumps and the Bidens. I call for peaceful coexistence in a political system that is less rigid and more open to diversity - a system that takes into account the new faces of America. The world and America are changing, but our Constitution is stuck in a dying past. Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/joseph-codsi/support
