As for ideas, the first thing we need to do has already been done. We've started talking. The second thing that we need to do is relinquish our inhibitions, fears and doubts as to the efficacy of protesting. With enough people, you can do anything.

Well the constitution is mostly good.. its perfection lies in its amendablity.

I would first off recomend addressing the problem of representation.

Currently we have no voice of our own what so ever at a federal level. We rely on our representatives to speak for us yet how many of us know them. PERSONALLY honestly know them? DO they understand your life and your struggles? Do they even know the current price of gasoline?

I would keep the Senate as it is. 2 representatives to represent the whole of us at a state level.

I would dissolve the house of representatives and in its place institute the house of the people where we the people would take on the HOR duties and represent ourselves ...speak for ourselves.

Never again would there be taxation without representation because we would represent ourselves.

Now if you think the people would vote themselves into a third world welfare state then you have no faith in the senate (which at this point is very understandable) but the Senate is a great check on the house. If you think the people would not read bills passed then understand that your current congressman and senators today do not read HALF of what they sign....They just go which ever way the lobbyists pay them too.

If you wonder how it could work just remember the internet is everywhere even at your local libraries. And if new hack proof hardline need to be built I personally would give every penny I could for it if the reward was the ability to speak for myself when Senate presents a bill to raise Taxes for education without addressing the fundamental problems of the educational system... Throwing money at a problem does not solve it, it only lines the pockets of those who sponsored the bill.


After that minor glitch with the legislative branch was addressed, I would correct the executive branch. Dissolve the electoral college and institute popular vote. I would also remove the term limits because it infringes upon YOUR LIBERTY!!! If you have a president you like, that the majority of america likes, who wants to remain president himself WHY ARE WE NOT ALLOWED TO KEEP HIM /HER IF THE MAJORITY WANTS HIM TO REMAIN IN OFFICE!?!?!

I would also anull executive orders.

Moving on to the last branch the SCOTUS. I would end life time appointments. In its place I would install the longest terms of 15 year term for supreme court justices with no term limits. And I would have them elected by popular vote not appointed.

Skeptics might insist that they would be subject to our popular politics of the day.. . But I have more faith in you. When you are voting for someone for a 15 year term do you really want to judge him and elect him over todays politics? Or would you value his long term consistency? And when you consider the average term of a SCOTUS judge it averages to around 15 years anyways...

With these constitutional amendments I think tyranny would be crushed forever, unable to rear its ugly head ever again in our system.

It would be "a more true to the idea" representative democracy. A republic that allows the minority a voice. YOU THE INDIVIDUAL would have a say with all the other individuals.

Are there kinks? I am sure. But could the kinks be ironed out to forge a more perfect union? UNDOUBTEDLY!

OP, I'm with you. I'm all for changing the government (not the change that is droned into our minds by a certain candidate). The problem is how to go about it. Like a previous poster, it's not like we're a country the size of Indiana. Personally, I think the best way to reform the government is to just inform people. I'm against violence because I really don't want to be sent to a federal "pound me in the ass" prison.

xD

Just a question to all who read this:

What government action would prompt you to consider a violent overthrow of the government? Not saying you should, just wondering. It's a question I often ask myself.

(True story, the DHS has been to my house!)

This thread is an eyesore.

I can't even tell what is being discussed anymore.

Ditto for Canada, and I'd like the UK to do the same. In any case, they say people should plan for emergencies and stock up on food and water, which is pretty hard for most people, and hard to store in apartments. I suggest the first step is forming ahead of time an emergency government to discuss and act out in case it is needed by the people who have decided once and for all the psychos are gone for good. The first thing is to make sure ordinary people are in, and to protect them from cia and assassins. Then its to disclose all documents to the public. Proportional democracy is the highest form of democracy and ensures greater numbers of people are in that people actually elect. The constitution actually was made to protect the people from corporate rule so it should probably simply be enhanced and given more teeth.

I'm 100% persent in. I was watching bush give a speach today and he was inturupted many times from people screaming WAR CRIMES!

He is a tyrant.

Our second amendment is in place for such a time. I suggest you all utilize it.

You are better off informing as many people about the NWO. But I doubt they'll listen. They're too busy oogling at Paris Hilton.

Plus did you mask your IP when you made this thread?

Looks like I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue!

As far as I can tell the drum circle of death is the only reasonable idea so far.
