9. IF WE can elect some non-corporate owned politicians

who actually put real people before corporations, I do not care if they call themselves the monkey party.

There is so little difference between our current corporate parties that the only difference seems to be when they are candidates. Democrats have a wonderful FDR tradition to draw from and many can do that successfully.

Unfortunately, when they are elected they fall in to the corporate cradle. Usually the democrats that run are obviously more intelligent (and seemingly more compassionate), unfortunately, post-election, the lesser of two weevils is still weevil.
