"Illiterate and semiliterate Americans are condemned not
only to poverty, but also to the powerlessness of
incomprehension. Knowing that they do not understand
the issues, and feeling prey to manipulative over-
simplifications, they do not trust the system of which they
are supposed to be the masters. They do not feel
themselves to be attractive participants in our republic,
and they often do not turn out to vote."
