'''Populism''' is a political term describing a political agenda which aims to favor the average person over the [[elitism|elite]]. The term can be either negative or positive based on the context.

In the late 20th century [[Ronald Reagan]] and other [[conservative]]s adopted populist themes, attacking elites, such as federal judges and the [[lamestream media|national media]], as too elitist and too distant from the people, and calling for more power to the people.
