FYI - I have NO political party, and I'm real, think real, and act real. It's NOT fantasy. I'm NOT the only one that has no political party. There are many of us, but we're greatly outnumbered by the stupid damn idiots that have a political party. Thus the sad shameful state of this once great nation.Having no political parties is a attractive fantasy but absolutely unreal. Like minded people will always group together and vote in unison wether they have a name or not. America vote stupidly massively and regretfully. As usual.
There's nothing wrong with like-minded people getting together. The problem comes when money enters the picture to corrupt the system. Remove the temptation and let them talk away.Having no political parties is a attractive fantasy but absolutely unreal.

Me, nor anyone else, can, or should, tell you who to vote for. That is your choice, as it should be. It's one of the few freedoms that hasn't been taken away. Vote for anyone that you feel merits your vote. Exercise your right to vote. It would be stupid of me, or anyone else, to tell you who to vote for.So you ARE telling me who I can vote for. Makes your earlier response seem somewhat disingenuous. All those things are easily explained. They were all in some way desired by special interests. Take away their ability to fund elections and it takes away a lot of their power. Nothing's perfect, but if that's what you're looking for, you don't understand human nature. Nothing's going to change it, but you can introduce stumbling blocks.Well then, please explain the Lobbyists' control of the U.S. Congress. Explain the corruption associated with government no-bid contracts such as Halliburton and GE. Explain the giving away of tax dollars to corrupt foreign governments. Explain the supplying weapons to drug lords and terrorists. Explain the building of mosques on foreign soil. Explain the care and support of illegal immigrants. How would campaign finance reform change government corruption? Government corruption is embedded to the extent that the only real solution is to never ever vote for, nor re-elect, a professional politician, and set service to a "one-term" term limit.
Locally, without the help of any national organizations.....A US Congress person is simply a person in a congressional district......You win the election, you get to go to the US Congress......So describe what you'd like to see. How do we elect office-holders?I don't see how Republicans/Democrats are benefiting the United States and I also don't see how having propaganda media networks pandering to either side (msnbc,cnn,fox news) helps to truly inform the public of the real issues facing the country.
Our political process is a circus with one side saying yes the other saying no just because the other said yes, and then opposite when it is appropriate.
This isn't government. It's a game at the expense of the American people, their tax dollars, and insulting to our intelligence.
It's time to stop it now...

What corrupts politicians, if not money? Even if they don't use it to their own benefit, it skews how they think because they constantly have to worry about what their big contributors want, NOT what the people want.Money isn't the problem, corrupt politicians are the problem. the only way to deal with corrupt politicians is with term limits, get them out before they do too much damage. That way also cuts out the money, they have to keep buying new politicians, and the fact that there would be no more entrenched politicians would mean more normal people would run for office and have a chance of winning. Now, with guys who have been in office 20 years, you need a freaking crow bar to get them out of their seats.Money isn't the problem, and allowing people to give money to the people they want to represent them is free speech.
But that's what anyone who calls for term limits is doing. I prefer money limits.Me, nor anyone else, can, or should, tell you who to vote for. That is your choice, as it should be. It's one of the few freedoms that hasn't been taken away. Vote for anyone that you feel merits your vote. Exercise your right to vote. It would be stupid of me, or anyone else, to tell you who to vote for.

The first step would be to end Citizens United, and get the big money out of politics. As long as it's legal for the rich to buy elections, they will do it and control the politicians they paid for.

Allow me to translate...
Begin translation for left wing stupid post:
He posted the truth about money in politics, and made me look like an idiot. True, being a lefty I am used to being an idiot, but his actually showing that I am an idiot is really embarrassing. I know, I will just say "Are you really that dumb." That will get lots of silly giggles from the other lefties on the site and make me look pretty smart.

So you think unlimited money in politics which converts election day to political garage sale day isn't a problem? I ask again......Are you really that dumb?
