REAL DEMOCRACY, NOT THE SPOON FED TV CRAP THAT PASSES FOR REALITY IN AMERICA: You are off to a start. Here is what is absolutely essential for democracy to come to America for the first time: 1) A TOTAL BAN ON ANY FORM OF ELECTRONIC VOTING. THERE ARE FAR TOO MANY CHEATS WHO OWN THE TABULATION COMPANIES, AND FAR TOO MANY VENAL AND/OR LAZY ELECTION OFFICIALS ACROSS AMERICA. WE NEED TO HAVE CITIZENS COUNTING HAND VOTES. 2) PROPORTIONAL REPRESENTATION MUST REPLACE FIRST-PAST-THE-POST VOTING 3) A TOTAL ABOLITION OF MONEY IN POLITICAL CAMPAIGNS AND STIFF PRISON SENTENCES FOR ANY LOBBYISTS ATTEMPTING TO PAY ANY MONEYS (in whatever form from golf tee fees to whore's hourly rates) TO OFFICIALS FOR FAVORS. If we do these three extremely simple things, we can save democracy and the American dream. If we let business continue "as usual", America will be destroyed before the today's babies in diapers are buying diapers for their own offspring.
