WHY SOME PEOPLE SHOULDN'T VOTE

The majority of Americans voted for this idiot as president. I therefore can only conclude that the majority of Americans are stupid.....and they are making babies. America got the president it deserves. The people that voted for Obama are STILL too stupid to know it yet. They believed his campaign 'commercials'. Even during debates with Hillary and McCain he touted crap that he knew was impossible just to put a shine on the turd he was pushing and people ate it up!

They did no research on the man because even though they had an internet search engine, they were too lazy to use it. They bought into thinking it was cool to help make history of the first 'black' in office.
They vote on their local and state officials based on who has the better or most signs stuck in yards. They might catch a few commercials and base their whole opinion and vote by who was the most clever or who addressed the one issue they feel is important to them, without doing any research as to what that person actually is lying about.

If there's one thing we have all learned about campaining and pre-election time, with Obama giving us all the perfect example, is "what you see, is NOT what you get"!
Compare campaigning to the packaging of a loaf of bread.
*Some have pretty wrappers and some have plain. Some voters go for the cheap white soft storebrand regardless, those are the people who vote partyline.

*Some never really have a favorite type of bread, but buy on the design of the wrapper.These are the people who vote on the appearance and speaking ability of the candidate.

*Then there are the people who give more consideration to the contents of that loaf of bread. They read the back of the package for nutritional value and ingredients. They care about their future health of their families. These are the people who vote on the perfomance (past&present) of a candidate or incumbant and vote knowing what they see is what they WILL get. *Obama Bread*
Ingredients:
Mostly unkown, Muslim educated, Saul Alinsky lecturer, Cloward/Piven inspired, Radical Peer groupy.
Nutritional Value:
CommunityAcorn Organizer, Union Whore, Anti-American, Anti-Capitalist, Lier, Socialist.

How in the hell did we get an overtly anti-American resident of the people’s White House without so much as a simple background check???

Do your own research people. From schoolboards to congress, know WHO these people are and what they stand for. We have to ignore the campaign bullshit and get the background checks done on our own. If you don't have the time.....
Don't vote....and stop making more babies because the future of America is uncertain.

Instant Runoff Voting - SOLUTION

I argue that we were never a democracy, that we are supposed to be a constitutional republic. But our defacto government, is actually government to the highest bidder. Elected officials highest priority is usually to be reelected.

Politicians vote the way that lobbyist and special interests want and not their constituents, because of the way elections are currently framed requires lots of money. And it is not just a matter of getting money if you vote a certain way, a candidate must consider that his opposition in the next election will get that same money, if the candidate fails to vote that certain way.

At the same time, voters are distracted away from the real issues of government waste, corruption and conflicts of interest. The mass media frames the election decision for the voter emphasizing the most polarizing issues and downplaying the "foxes guarding the henhouse" issues. I am sorry to convey that most American Voters do not try to think outside of the "major media election issue" box. (or they are not motivated enough to do anything about it.)

The point is that we must postulate to ourselves how to overcome the forces and thought processes that taint our elections. What can we do to motivate Politicians to vote their majority constituents agenda instead of selling their votes for money? What can we do to supplant the current voter thought process for one that will give results more consistent with the ideals of our Founding Fathers.

I suggest that we engage in a campaign to induce a paradigm shift in the way that American Voters make their voting decisions.

I propose that we displace the election framework of the major media and the 2 major parties. I suggest we frame every election as a pass / fail test for every incumbent. In every election, the condition we finds ourselves in personally and as a country, is the result of what the incumbents have legislated and done.

If we can get the majority of voters to vote incumbents in or out based on whether the overall conditions in the country pass or fail each individuals test, we will have shifted the voter decision making process. The pass/fail test is easily communicated with the simple question: "Are you happy?"


If you are happy, vote all the incumbents back in, regardless of political party. If you are not happy vote all the incumbents out, regardless of political party?

After a couple of elections, in which the incumbents are all voted out, elected officials will come to be more motivated to keep their constituents happy and less likely vote solely on the basis of bribes and campaign contributions.

No amount of money spent by lobbyist in bribes and campaign contributions will alter whether the average voter thinks they are happy or not? And so long as we can
convince the average voter to vote their happieness, the elected officials will have to cast votes and make decisions that will keep at least half of the voters happy.

For those who want to stay affiliate to one of the 2 major political parties, I say this: "If you always do what you have always done, you will always get what you always got." How happy are you with what you have been getting?

The infrastructure and the entrenched party officials and politicians will demand that any TEA Party faction bend to their wills, rather than they bend to ours. The powers that be, already entrenched and far more knowledgeable of the party rules and procedures, will quickly neuter any overtures to change.

All that having been said, I would prefer we start a third party (or a third party coaliation). Either we are committed to this change or we are not. Please don't waste my time and political collateral, if we are not committed to this cause.

And along those longs, let us lobby for a Instant Runoff Voting:

If you talk to the people that voted for President Obama, you will find that a majority of them voted for him not because he was a better qualified candidate, an African American or because they wanted a liberal democrat in the White House, they voted for him because of what he said he represented, Change. Change from business as usual politics in Washington. He was an outsider that was going to shake up DC.

The Democrats are claiming victory over the Republicans, but did they win or did the Republicans lose? It is hard to tell when there are only two parties in our political system. The Democrats and Republicans are so busy fighting against each other for power that they forgot long ago why they are there and who they are representing. There are no winners or losers in politics, because it is the same people every year just in different roles. The real losers are the Americans.

Regardless of your views on our new President, what he ultimately highlights is that Americans are fed up with the current system and are desperate for change in ANY form. The Tea Party coalition was a great way to vent frustration, but it did not fix anything. We propose to fix the problem by capitalizing on the "Change" momentum generated by the election of President Obama and further riding the wave of the frustrated populace represented by the Tea Party movement.

We propose we clean house in Washington DC. How, you may ask? By using the most powerful weapon democracy gives us - the vote. Starting in 2010 let's VOTE OUT THE INCUMBENTS! Unless you have researched and approve of the candidate, vote for new blood. Don't vote partylines, vote change.

In a single election and doing nothing more than our civic duty, we can change Washington forever. Let us make the vote mean something again. Let us use its power to take our country back.

Let us stand up as a nation and let the Silent Majority be heard loud and clear. "We're mad as hell and we aren't going to take this anymore!"
