This essay is an application of the framework set out in Two Visions of Democracy in our last Amintaphil volume (Cudd and Scholz 2014, Parker, 75-86). Part I sets out that framework in summary form. Part II explains how the current gridlock in the Federal Government can be loosened. Part III suggests a principled compromise to the problem of what to do about the eleven million people residing illegally in the United States. Part IV gives reasons why the suggested compromise is politically possible.
