The Trouble with Our Democracy Part 2: The Causes - Objectivum Docs

In this video, I get into the details about the causes of our democracy declining. This is a complex topic and without question, it would be impossible to cover everything, but I am aiming to hit on what are the most important aspects of this decline in American democracy. As always, I try to remain as objective as I possibly can.

In part three we will get into potential solutions for this issue.

Thanks a lot for watching!
