1. The people voting still have the right to vote for who they want.

    I do think the US system is flawed though. Especially the primaries where most power is essentially located to a few places.
  2. And thats not only the US, happens everywhere. If you have money, you can buy influence.

  3. Most Americans are pro-Israel to start with. We support oil since its cheap. As for the phrama lobby, they don't have as much power as you think.

    I say the primarys should be in a random order each time.

  5. Hence why you don't find many poor politicians.

  6. I think everyone should just vote at the same time. Have some national debates on TV, vote. Be done with that. Would save the Super PACs a lot of money

    Well if everyone was pro-israel, they wouldnt need a lobby . Well I do think the pharma and the record industry were paramount in creating the ridiculous acta.
  8. I've been watching The West Wing on DVD a lot lately. One hell of a TV show.

    They should just aggregate the number of votes directly instead of that weird system. I really don't have a clue why they made it so complex.
  10. I prefer 24 as far as political shows go.

  11. Never watched that one. But watching The West Wing sure is a great way to spend some time before going to bed. It's so well made.
