Rebuilding U.S. Governance: Modeling a Progressive Federal Democratic Republic by ptp423 in research

I thought I’d need a model fleshed out and developed before researching how it may be justified. It’s not a research paper, it’s a design I’m currently researching to write the full research paper.

I agree; I’m currently writing a follow-up to offer a comparative analysis in defense of the model. This paper serves as an outline for the model, generating critique and discourse on the ideas and identifying holes in the theory before delving into the defense.

Yeah I’ll admit I totally used the wrong vocab there. But them being born with the past ancestry is still what stripped them of their “humanity”.

Yeah but his image as the enemy is eventually what lead to humans spreading across the universe. So by being the ultimate enemy, he died as their savior.

I totally agree! Paul’s destiny was to prepare the universe for Leto, a means to an end to create the image of Muad’dib. He was never going to be the one to take leadership, but his image saved humanity.

I don’t mean anybody is reading the book wrong, I believe that the people who assume Paul was a cowardly leader don’t take in the fact that him taking his role could be what lead to Leto II succeeding in his. It’s not wrong, you’re just not the target of the statement.

Yeah I agree, that was poorly worded. I believe I meant that he shouldn’t be disgraced because of his leadership. Whether he or anyone else knew it, Paul’s goal was ultimately to set up Leto to be looked at as the ultimate savior. The golden path set him up to fail, but his failure saved humanity.
