2. Great idea, H20 Man.

These three areas, or issues, could appeal to all voters:

1.) New New Deal for the 21st Century: New Jobs to Meet the Challenges and Problems facing the nation and the planet.

2.) Peace for Profit, rather than Wars for Profit.

3.) Equal Justice for All: Warmongers and Banksters no longer walk free.

Each issue is contentious, as each represents longstanding and deeply vested interests that have ruled the roost since when Nixon, Kissinger and Madame Chennault were on the phone to Saigon.

The thing is, IMO: Republicans, Independents, and Democrats of all varieties I've spoken with -- from Kansas to Maryland and from Michigan to Tennessee -- know the nation needs to institute them to avoid disaster, let alone to move forward.
