Uh...yeah! It is important. From the highest to the lowest, we are ALL an integral part of what makes a great nation ...that being a great people first.

I am not saying that the intentions aren't good...but that's what checks & blances are for, & a people who will make sure their govts. are accountable to those checks & balances.

Outside of that you get dictatorships & tyranny, injustices too along with taking of rights & freedoms.

Do I think that's important...ABSOLUTELY!
