By Dint:
1. Political Accountability
Candidate Accountability Requirement: Show Up Unassisted for regularly scheduled News Conferences The Palin Plank.
Primacy of Law over Revelation. Religious revelation to some shall not ground laws for the public. Propose pragmatic secularism for interaction areas among humans and groups; religion and dogma fine for the individual's own life, if he or she chooses.
2. Abuse of Conscience
Conscience vs. Constituency. Lieberman's Law. No legislator shall apply values of his or her own conscience in opposition to the desires of constituents absent full opportunity for discourse and vetting of such in his or her home state or district.
3. Politics and Poll abuse. Polling abuse.
Voter Alienation Syndrome: Discounting the Polls Polls only get the landlined, the willing to talk - small portion of total possible voters.
4. Propaganda techniques
Traditional Scapegoat Hunts - Economic Downturns Find the nearest minority, aim and fire.
New Political Parties
Qualities of Wisdom: Global Wisdom Party Global Wisdom Party. The Qualities of their candidate. There is indeed a collection of attributes that many cultures name as comprising a wise leader.
5. Special interests. Abuse by Cash. Money
The Piggle-Wiggle Congress Cure: Let Consequences Happen; Negotiated Agreements Not Always Best
Let the deal speak for itself, the person remain accountable for language, use of persuasion techniques needed where there is merit, because merit alone speaks softly.
Healthcare Legislative Recusal Time. Financial Interest? De-Weight the Vote
Reduce weight of the legislator's vote depending on what money he/she got from the interested parties. Dangers of secrecy.
Explore Election Finance: Humans Only. Qualified to Vote? You Can Contribute
No more corporate contributions, as "legal persons". For accountability, identification, individuals only. They may name the corporation's interest, but funds are out of individuals' pockets. Raise the issue again. Distinguish Citizens United. Keep at it.
6. Disruptions. Force as abuse of process
Political Disruptive Behavior Disorder Tantrums? Apply the DSM-IV conduct disorder diagnoses, usually applicable to children and teens, to adults.
7. Transparency
C Street. When Congressmen Combine to Espouse Secret Religious Allegiances Superseding the Constitution. Keeping real allegiances secret. Do our beloved politicians do that in order to get and stay elected? Do they? What recourse for voters? Ouster? Transparency alert.
8. Abuse by Privilege
Privilege maintainers vs. Risers up
Sotomajority - Escape from the SO Yessir Corral Privilege Maintainers vs. Secondary Others. Long-corralled Majority for Sotomayor leaps the fence. Reject the new PM pledge.
Table-turning
Spigots in Politics: Waterloos. When the Waterloo-er Predictor becomes the Waterloo-ed. Health reform. Obama as new lion of Waterloo. Heart vs. cold.
Can it last?
