Democracy, a system of government where the citizens exercise power by voting, consists of some key elements: <u>A political system for choosing/replacing the government through free/fair elections</u>; <u>The active participation of the people in politics and civic life</u>; <u>Protection of the human rights of all citizens</u>; A rule of law, in which the laws and procedures apply equally to all citizens.
Democracy involves respect for the dignity of the person and the ideas associated with universal citizenship, and the limits on the power of the state to intrude into private lives.
<em>The </em><em><u>rule of law</u></em><em> is a principle whereby all members of a society are considered equally subject to publicly disclosed legal codes/processes (every person is subject to the law).</em>

Walt Whitman provides images of grass throughout his poem “Song of Myself.” According to the him, grass represents the hopeful nature of man. It also represents a gift from God: “A scented gift and remembrance designedly dropt,” which acts as a reminder of God’s existence. The poet further contemplates that the grass could also represent the “child” of nature: “Or I guess the grass is itself a child, the produced babe of the vegetation.”
As the poem progresses, Whitman uses grass as a symbol of equality. Grass represents how people of different races, genders, and classes are equal in America. Just as grass grows everywhere irrespective of the place, all humans are equal, no matter the group they belong to.
