...Perhaps, if we made voting easier we would have a larger field of candidates...

But therein is the problem, Robert. "WE" don't make any laws. It's the bums (our 'representatives')that make the laws, and they don't WANT a larger field of candidates. They like it JUST THE WAY IT IS. thank you very much.

Go here and look up your own local representatives. See exactly WHO gives them money, how much and then compare that with how they vote on specific legislation...

then you'll know WHO they represent...
