In a commercial for a new CBS show this fall, the hero is told to take a pill so he can become "somebody who matters." Well, he's already somebody who matters. We all are. The major religions tell us that. Science tells us we are all unique creations in the universe. That matters. The essence of democracy is that everyone has a right to weigh in on public policy concerns. We are all equal as citizens. We all matter.
It's too bad CBS seems willing to skip over all that.
