I’d change that to fellow citizens, there are more people than voters in a nation. Its important a voter remembers they aren’t only casting that ballot to effect their own lives, but for all, including those that don’t have a capacity or right to vote.
Examples include children, recent migrants, certain disabled persons.
Not to be contrarian, but I think we got into this whole mess because politicians started representing the will of people other than their voters. It should be up to the people to want to help and protect children, migrants and disabled non-voters, the politicians should just distill all their will into action in the political system. The whole point is I don’t want a leader who acts on his own, I want a representative who does what he’s told by the voters, the voters should be the ones who want better for all.
