People probably would take me to task for my suggestions (I don't know enough political stuff to make much sense but at least I admit that up front - so my ignorance is really just that: ignorance). We need to clean out D.C. by just getting them all fired out of there . . . restore this country to the original founding father's ideals . . . based on the Constitution. The Constitution is still a fantastic document. We need to do something about Supreme Court Justices - the get assigned there and stay there until they decide to retire and/or die? Silly! Same thing with the Senators: TERM LIMITS. Also, we need to really go back to basics in education. In order to graduate, kids should have to take the "citizen" test - and pass it with an 80% or more. What say you?
All those reforms you mentioned are necessary but IMHO will not happen. The teachers union has a stranglehold on "education", over 40% of the citizens are on some sort of "public welfare" (often masquerading as a government jobs.)
This system we call the USA is going to collapse - either slowly like Venezuela or all at once.
I vote for all at once so we can begin the process of rebuilding. The people that deny what is going on and stick their heads in the sand will perish. The others will make prudent preparations which will ensure their survival. Track-O-'Crat has some additional thoughts on this and some good links...

It's so frustrating!
Before Christmas break, my 9 yr old had to memorize the Preamble (We the People...). Of course, we all remember it from the School House Rock, but have you ever said it and thought about each word. I figured I'd do just that with my son. The words are "old fashioned" but it was fun explaining what things like "domestic tranquility" and "ourselves and our posterity" mean. This little paragraph really just brought it all home how much freedoms are being taken away.
thanks for being so uplifting and positive tonight babe....
