Alexis De Tocqueville wrote in his book called Democracy in America, how well Americans could get things done by forming various associations. These were interest groups, that worked for a common goal. If government action was needed to support a particular goal of an interest group, orderly steps were taken to petition the local, State or Federal government that was best able to help the group.
