What politicians should do and what they do are two totally different things. The only way that the system will change is if the citizens start to watch what the politicians do and how they vote. We need to communicate with them. There is a really good website for that in the U. S., it's www.congress.org. You can use it to observe national and state elected officals. Care2 is another great website where people can start or simply read and sign petitions about the issues of the day. It is important that you, that means everyone, stop procrastinating and start getting more involved. I also think that candidates for office should not be allowed to spend millions of dollars for their campaigns. They should be forced to use the internet and the news media should be forced to publish or air each candidates stands on each issue and let the public decide. Stop allowing high paid lobbyist from running the government. It is our government and we need to start demanding that our leaders listen to us. We need to start an "Informed and Angry" Revolution! Let the elected officials know that we are watching them by writing, calling, e-mailing them frequently and by showing up at the polls on election day. Stay angry and let them know that WE DEMAND MORE AND BETTER SERVICE from our government. TOGETHER, WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
