The goal of citizenship within a democracy is democratic deliberation. What do we mean by "democratic deliberation," and what does "deliberate in good faith" entail?

What will be an ideal response?

The best answers will identify:
1. the goal of democratic deliberation as joining with other citizens to find solutions to our common problems through rigorous discussion and debate.
2. the qualities of deliberating in good faith, such as listening with open minds and providing evidence to support our opinions, among other examples.
3. that difference can never be eradicated, but that true good-faith deliberation requires us to air differences respectfully and put them to the side when necessary for the deliberation to progress.
