BF2S Forums No Credit, No Problem

I have to admit...  with time, I grow a lot more fond of Beck.

He's kind of a neo-populist.  Lou Dobbs is another good one.

The fact that I ask for a lot is the principle in and of itself.

By and large, the American people aren't asking for enough from their system.  I'm not talking about healthcare, defense, or any of those other things -- I'm talking representation.

We don't ask for enough with regards to the character of our leaders.  We vote a rich guy in thinking he's some kind of honest guy that will somewhat represent our interests, but then unsurprisingly, he votes more in line with special interest groups.

The system is partially to blame, but I should've mentioned that we are the problem as well.  We should expect both parties to produce leaders with more relevance to our interests.  When we start comprehensively looking at who really might end up with the job of representing us as a nation, we'll start getting better candidates, because the parties will know that we expect someone impressive and honest.
