"Discovering What Democracy Means"

Have we all lost our vision? I wonder as I read this oped piece by Bill Moyers if most people in America are totally blind to what they don't know, or what they don't want to know?

As we face that challenge even today, a story about Helen Keller is worth remembering. Toward the end of her career, as she was speaking at a Midwestern college, a student asked: “Miss Keller, is there anything that could have been worse than losing your sight?” Helen Keller replied: “Yes, I could have lost my vision.”
