Good answer, Little Hawk.

One of the very hopeful things about the nationwide--worldwide--Occupy Wall Street movement is that there are enough people who have bloody-well had it with being had that a voter's strike is becoming a distinct possibility.

In short, "None of the above!!"

The whole systen has to be changed. Strict regulation of campaign financing, make bribery of public officials in any form (money, promises of a good job at the end of one's term, any form of consideration for favors done) a fine and prison offense, AND the institution of preferential or instant run-off voting.

This is just a start. Other measures would include the re-institution of many of FDR's "alphabet soup agencies" such as the Securities and Exchange Commission (NOT to include Wall Street bankers as it does now, since Ronald Reagan set out ot gut them, and the other regulatory agencies FDR put in place.

One of the things that has been made plain by the OWS demonstrations is the many of the participants had great hopes for Barack Obama, voter for him, and have since been sorely disappointed by his performance. Or lack of performance. Much of it is not his fault, since the Republican Congress has done everything it can to block everything he has tried to do, wanting him to fail, no matter how it screws up the rest of the country.

When someone came to FDR with their grievances and what they wanted him to do about it, he said, "I totally agree with you. Now, MAKE me do it!"

That's what we have to do with Obama. Give him a spine transplant and MAKE him do it!

OWS can do that!
