Political Discourse and Sovereignty

Well, sovereignty has recently pop_ed  up in political discourse.
Now, I'm not sure whether anyone or everyone has a very clear
notion of what sovereignty might mean and to put it simply, 
what sovereignty is, is a pretty complex issue, but I will simply
state that " sovereignty "  comes from the individual,,, because
where else could it arise?

But back to the issue of political discourse, in my opinion,
this has been mostly focused on ,,, we will discuss
a variety of issues which may be of concern, and whoever
holds the most popular position on this, is --> the  " group ",
that gets to spend the cash,,,, and the " big pile " of cash
becomes ,,, sovereignty.  Basically, in the U.S. it's about
a contest between the dueling big 2 positions, 
meaning liberal or conservation ,,,,,  which as a nation
we decide which of these groups is the best about talking
about this variety of issues.  Then we decide that anybody
who doesn't have 2 distinct groups arguing about how
to spend the cash, are mostly ----> bad! <---- (generally,
but not always) ,  but , whatever,  that makes us " good ! " ...
There is, however, a monkey wrench variable which relates
to " individual " popularity ,,, a highly obscure concept.

This is pretty stupid ,really, if you think about or, really,
it's pretty stupid even if you don't think about it.  Now,,
I'm not going to try and say how we should make these
kinds of decisions, but I will say that there must be
a better way to think about this and to really actually
do it, because right now I think the main justification
for it is, it's a kind of weird form of entertainment, that
no one enjoys, but no one can  escape, and we kind of
assume is free, but really costs a bundle.

Meanwhile, I will get back to the issue of sovereignty, some
more .... later .....
