If democracy has been undermined by influential greedy people....is there and alternative?

When the politicians from every party get bribed by the rich and stop serving the ordinary people... when they start selling off our national assets and cutting vital services.... what can we do?

If the vast majority loose faith in the democratic process... and would jump at the opportunity to vote for 'none of the above'.... how can we change things?

America is a 'constitutional republic' and their politicians are receiving massive bribes from business interests in the form of 'consultations and fees' to ensure things never change in the best interest of the ordinary people (e.g. to keep prescription charges higher). How can they have soup kitchens and patients ineligible for treatment and still pay government bailed out bankers million dollar bonuses? The system has failed to deliver....so what is the alternative?

You need to get out and help make sure Obama wins by a LANDSLIDE in november so the far right will be put in there place.We the people must decide that all the hate,obnoxious,rude,pompous behavior by politicians must and will come to a end.I believe that the actions by the tea party in the last couple of years has shined a bright light on the far right I just hope it will be bright enough for all to see.We the people are the only way to bring our politicians back to being someone our kids will look up to.People wonder why our children have very little respect for anything but in reality they show more respect to others then our own what are supposed to be STATESMEN.

I'm an Englishman, but even I can see what's wrong with America, as I have read the 'Citizens Rule Book', which tells you exactly what is wrong, even YOU think you country is a 'Democracy' and your own book tells you that 'Democracy' leads to 'Bondage'!!!

That's were you are now, in Bandage, as when your Birth Certificate is signed and you are given a number, you belong to the Corporation, the Corporate State of America, under (their LEGAL laws) and not Constitutional law.
As you pay such things as 'traffic tickets', which are both Unlawful and Unconstitutional, so why pay them? because you are in bondage.

a constitutional republic.

We haven't even had a true constitutional republic and since 1787 it has become less and less of a constitutional republic. Since 1861 their has been no republic whatsoever. The US is a corporation and the republic has not had a lawful congress since 1861.
