| You say you want a revolution Well you know We'd all want to change the world You tell me that it's evolution Well you know We'd all want to change the world But when you talk about destruction Don't you know that you can count me out Don't you know it's gonna be alright

Law is defined to be a rule of action; but how can that be a rule, which is little known and less fixed? -James Madison |

| Strung Out | The basis for a revolution in the American tradition would be to fight against a power you have no control over nor can do anything productive with. That is NOT the case in the US. We have pretty free and pretty fair elections AND we've just added to the mix the incredible power of the Internet to raise funds to compete outside the confines of the major parties if they choose to continue supporting the course the nation is currently on. We simply lack enough leaders who have the imagination and the determination to over come the obstacles. We also have an awful lot of people who only care about one thing; the letter after the candidates name. As bad as it is, we still have the power.

| I can picture... 1000 veterans...WWII, Korea, Viet Nam, Iraq I/II...making a slow & steady march up constitution ave. ALL are armed...none are menacing: just focused. The Secret service is all fired up...but doubt has squeaked in: Will they fire on American Heroes? There is a flurry of orders & counter orders and refused orders...and the march continues. Right up the steps of congress while the panic erupts in the Speaker's chambers and furniture is thrown up against the doors. man, it is a very impressive scene.

It is insulting to our forefathers that we even contemplate taking up arms against what they bled and died for and left to us simply because we're can't be bothered to even hold our own representatives accountable. Good Lord. You don't throw the baby out just because WE let the bathwater get dirty.

| Board Mommy | And people, please - do not make threats against elected officials. You are on a public forum and anyone can read this.

| Strung Out | How come you're not a Democrat? You are also firmly in the nanny state camp where you believe people are not willing or even capable of being responsible, correct? So, why not support the people who share your beliefs?
