For most fans of the series this is a feature, not a bug.

There is a lot of desperate demand for the simple acknowledgment that America got a lot of things right, and had a deep commitment to doing better.

The books have some lengthy subplots exploring our nations sins, and dark parts. But the general framing is, "good people with good intent doing their best who fall short, get up and do their best again. And that is AWESOME!"

I think “deep commitment” is rather debatable. We’ve moved in the right direction, generally, but only slowly and with far too much foot dragging. Remember, gay marriage was only legalized six years ago. Six!

And that’s just one example out of many.
