HC - the young folks today are more in-tuned with our governmental system then ever before. They are interacting to ensure our system is on the right path. The are impressive and that gives me hope for the future of our country. The old adage still applies "out with the old and in with the new". I agree that are political system is somewhat splintered and the current thinking by our leadership is questionable. I can only hope that some systematical thinking can get us back on track and with policies that will make America greater than ever.

I've seen change on the horizon "maybe not with this current leadership" but the next election will have much more energy and leadership without all this bipartisan shenanigans. Leader's today are not totally engaged on both sides and the wild card decisions being made by our current program leave us shaken at times because we are used to a more engaged political process.

DEMS or REPS have to be "unified" in order to show us that they can work together. Special Interest Groups and Big Money have always impacted common sense. The people of this country know that. The status of our general welfare is at risk when they hedge on their promises when once in office. I'm for Term Limits get the old wood out and bring in new fresh thinking that haven't been corrupted by outside influences.

The current system seems to discard the original guidelines of the government. They tend to write their own outlines and discard the rules in place. They are no longer independent thinker's and doer's they are guided by the old school methods which handcuff the incoming newbee's to fall into step rather than allow them to be free thinker's - rather than just follower's of the old school methodology. I see this each election.

I could be wrong but we need to capture the free open minded thinkers and doers and get the old dog's to learn new ways.
