Cooking up a True Blue Democracy <br /> <br /> 1) Take 160 randomly selected citizens from across the political spectrum. <br /> 2) Add months of education on electoral processes. <br /> 3) Stir in a healthy dose of pubic opinion. <br /> 4) Beat in a rigourous debate. <br /> 5) Then top it off with an overwhelming conscensus. <br /> 6) Lay it out on a silver platter for the public. <br /> <br /> 7) Bake in referendum. <br /> <br /> Troubleshooting why your "True Blue Democracy" recipe did not work. <br /> <br /> a) Mixture too lean to be served at the Party. <br /> b) Public not willing to learn to eat new foods. <br /> c) Certain groups at Party already too full at trough.

Then let's not ask for permission.<br /> <br /> Had the status quo never changed we would still be swinging clubs rather than swinging at them.

Eddy Haymoor proved they only change when we swing clubs at them.<br /> <br /> Had I taken an embasy hostage, as eddy did , my situation would have been resolved many years ago.<br /> <br /> I guess I have been, foolish in beleving that since my inventions and innovations, had significant social value they would be accepted on mertit alone.<br /> <br /> Dennis Baker
