Politics should be banned.

Maybe you.
A person has to be nominated by someone other than himself
Upstanding citizen is anybody, sane, an adult and not a felon, yet!

Thanks for the reply.

Just do bear in mind that in order for anyone to carry such a title, it must be bestowed upon them. From there, the bestowers must also pass acceptance and then, those who do the passing must also fit the credentials.

The backtrack just goes on into infinity.

IMESHO, the commoner... the average citizen is the best, most reliable resource to fall back upon.

Have a nice evening

Said very well but you have to have laws as guides to deconstruct or the chaos will continue or get worst


You just had a politician or politicians poison thousands of children.


That's the straw that broke the camels back, but the US citizen no longer has a back, just a bone in their heads.

Still awaiting a definition of a 'well known, upstanding citizen'.

Maybe you.

Being an honest person will eventually get you labeled insane, arrested and charged with disturbing the peace or the all inclusive conspiracy violations. Quit resisting....

That is disingenuous at best. What happened in Flint was a disaster that started with the use of lead pipes way back in the day. No present day politician was responsible for that.

The problem with your "Only people who can run are nominated by well known upstanding citizens" is that your "well known upstanding citizen" maybe completely different than my "well known upstanding citizen."

An example of what I mean, is folks that run in criminal circles might feel a killer/robber/dope dealer is a "well known upstanding citizen" and while a lot of folks aren't killers/robbers/dope dealers they still might not see anything wrong with the way he lives his/her life.

Where as your well known upstanding citizen might be a cop that hangs out in church and knows all the rich powerful people in town including the local politicians.

If you want to "save the country" you're better off educating people of their rights and creating jobs that allow folks to spend more time with their families and pay attention to the news. Another political party isn't going to do anything more than what the current political parties are doing.
