| Politics: Left, Right, and Center National, state, regional, and local politics. Who's doing what to whom, and what you can do about it. How-to-get-action messages are encouraged. "How the government fucked up my life" stories are encouraged. Sharing new methods for cheating on taxes is encouraged. Sample "letters to congresscritters" are encouraged. Apathy and "I can't do anything" posts are discouraged. Left, right, centrist, or any other form of political-economic systems are all up for discussion. Be prepared to defend yourself, or at least have a good line of bullshit ready. Extensive quoting of economists and philosophers is frowned upon. We want to hear what YOU have to say, not what some constipated, impotent, dead guy dreamt up while suffering from the DT's over a hundred years ago thought. |

Re: What if... we did this?
The nominee from each party would be the person who had the most delegates and hadn't terminated their campaign. I believe that would be Romney for the Republicans and Hillary for the Democrats; in which case Romney would win, barring a miracle from Nader.

What about Pelosi?
I can't remember it exactly, but someone posted a scenario in which she would become president and from memory it's not dissimilar to this one.

That would be if there was an electoral college tie (very unlikely) and a tie in the Senate and House (damn near impossible). |

Re: What if... we did this?
I know this is almost impossible but what we need to do is disband all of the top officials who are associated with corporations in a civilized manner. Do what King Louie the 14th did with his aristocratic class. Keep them close by for careful monitoring but give them a bunch of money and luxury so they don't stir up any trouble. Essentially do what they do to us. Keep them occupied with senseless entertainment and money. In this way we would not only avoid an insurgency but we could eliminate this fused body of government consisting of corporations and politics. And everyone wins. The people can have sound economic and political policies and the former government officials can have their money and if they want power devise useless institutions they can run and give them false goals to obtain.
