Martin, you're missing a major point in being effective: saying that the
whole system is fucked doesn't change things; point-by-point constructive
criticism does.

In lieu of discrediting our entire way of life ("America: Love It or Leave
It!"), I believe it's possible to fine tune things.  Just as the Exon
Admendment was weasiled in; it can just as readily by weasiled out -- if you're
focused in your approach.  My short term goal is to promote the dismantling
of the Exon Admendment and to not let our energies get diffused into 1001
discussions on the evils of various parties, etc.
