A new well informed 21st century citizen

     My definition of a well informed citizen was very basic; forms ideas, assesses media, is a citizen of the united states of america. My new definition includes the facts of government structure, knowledge of law, and internet prowess. So here goes, a well  informed citizen is someone who not only can look into media and form an opinion from it, they are able to tell you the exactly how something is affected and by which branch of the government (judicial, executive, legislative), they can easily drop into a conversation of what is right and wrong because they know the law and constitution, and they are able to easily navigate the internet because let's face it America runs on the internet. The internet is where we buy our clothes, search out our entertainment, it's wear we learn about topics that really interest us (it isn't limited like a book or the real world), it's where you are reading this, and if you can't use it properly then you aren't a well informed citizen.
