The unconscionable greed of the billionaire class ~

44. I think it could work, assuming the legality of it. Who knows, the only campaign finance

laws they would ever pass would be to stop the people from rounding up money for candidates. I had to register with my County Clerk and take a stupid class just to register voters, but boy are the local Teapublicans going to be pissed at me! My community is 49-51% black to white ratio, but city government is mostly white. I am setting up black churches to take the people to the DMV to get state issued ID's, fundraise to pay for them, and drive them to the polls.
I am explaining to the black people in my area about how they are not wanted to vote, to not believe what they hear on TV!

We need to be the ones to start recruiting candidates who will not be bought off, that understand what Public Service really means, and to educate others on what is really going on. Most people haven't really put it all together, though they already understand that most politicians are corrupt.

We are too used to just voting as our public service, if we even do that. The biggest challenge is finding people willing to devote a little time to work for their Democracy, to fight! That is how we lost our Representative Democracy in the first place. There is a lot to be done, things like organizing a fight to get rid of electronic voting and tabulation systems, educating people as to what has happened and why...

Good luck, let me know how it works for you as it is something I need to learn about as well!
