Obama: “The election proved that democracy is pretty far down on people‘s priority list. (...) Pluralism is not about holding hands and singing kumbaya. It is not about abandoning your convictions. It is about recognizing that in a democracy, power comes from forging alliances and building coalitions and making room in those coalitions, not only for the woke, but also for the waking.”
