The simple solution is the renewal of our commitment to the heritage of the Founding Fathers of this great nation. It is the "change", the needed peaceful, legal, positive revolution this nation desperately needs. It is the injection of debate, discourse, discussion and education of the citizen. It gives the citizen their deserved right to control their government.

Here is the simple solution. It needs your resolve and support to take affect. It is called the United States Amendment XXVIII- the 28th Amendment. It states:

All election funds for public office will be provided for by the local, state, or federal government for which office the candidate is seeking election- no other contributions will be allowed except from citizens and not in excess of $500.00 or an amount established annually by Congress. No election funding can be given by any other entity or persons except citizens of the electorate. *

Now is the time to join together, to move forward and to make the Congress introduce this amendment and then to make the states approve it. This takes co-ordination, will, determination and courage. It is neede and long overdue "change".

*This is the major problem, that the people who get elected are acting on behalf of corporations who refuse to carry their fair share of tax burdens and environmental costs. These groups promote wars, unnecessary pharmaceuticals, corporate benefits, investment regulations and rules that endanger the public's general welfare- which includes health and happiness.  At the same time they provide the bulk of money that guides who will be elected. The general public is misled and promises to the general public get laid aside if they do not fit the goals of the corporations that elect these individuals. They provide self serving legislative direction contrary to the benefits of the general public.
