patriots like Bacevich whose efforts to put their coun try on a better path were repeatedly before he paid the ultimate Price for his Martin Luther King not Only spent time in jail for repeated arrests but was stabbed and and it could be argued that it was All for As the United states is even now hardly a nation of racial yet what would our country be like today without King and All the others who persisted in their fight against a recalcitrant government the progressives at the turn of the last Cen Tury fought against a government that was so openly corrupt that congressional seats were sold to the highest and Urban Bosses bragged publicly of the profits they made off undaunted despite repeated progressives battled for elec Tion and lobbying ultimately culminating in the direct elections of senators and Campaign and lobbying the continuation of the War in Iraq demonstrates vividly that corruption of the governments responsibility to represent the will of the people is hardly permanently the progressive Leader Robert la Follette foresaw this eventuality in a speech he gave hundreds of times in the Early 1920s America is not but is in the there is an unending Strug Gle to

count it a patriotic duty to build at least a part of his life into the life of his to do his share in the making of America according to the plan of the professor Bacevich and his each in his own
