I know that during the McCarthy era, everyone was really worried about communism and it really started to mess up a lot of people's everyday lives. The part I'm having trouble with is how citizens can preserve the democratic political system. Do you have any idea? If I could just get one sentence on the subject, I could bullcrap my way through the paragraph
