31. I agree w ewulf...the timeframe is now to 2006
Even if Kerry WERE to somehow prevail and become president, wouldn't we still have to deal with this outrageous voting mess after what we have seen this year??

For those who have really had their eyes opened, I think there is no turning back. The system is rotten to the core and it will take a lot of work to turn it around. We will need everyone who has the vision to stay on board and work with groups to institute new mechanisms, operational by 06. Maybe not perfect, but a BIG improvement. That challenge is there whether B or K is inaugurated.

If we could achieve a clean voting system in this country, I think it would have a profound effect on our whole society. Not only political and social changes, but a new standard of morality, a new level of trust. Fraud and corruption is costing us all. And we must create new media--new information and entertainment resources.

We have seen that the right to vote must be protected, I think by constitutional amendment. It's basic. It could be the key to our dreams.
