July 4th and Still Too Much Political Apathy?

Do No Evil – Author, former CNN writer/producer, writes of disappointing personal experience in her town -- so little interest in politics, big issues people need to face. Why confront the hard choices when we can have fun barbecuing, etc.? Interesting, smart, personal piece.
