TOMPAINE.com - Hip To Democracy: "The crowd lined up outside the Cooper Union great hall in New York City on March 25 for a gathering called "Where's My Democracy?" did not look like your typical participants at a political rally. There were no suits and ties, no pleated khakis or Izod shirts, no signs or buttons—not even a single baby to kiss.
