When will we stop electing politicians?

I'll go a little further with this. The only people that we have put in office are politicians. A politicians first job is supposed to be the welfare of the country. But no. Politicians first and foremost job it seems is to be reelected.

"Why vote on something that may put me in the hotseat come reelection time, I'll just kick the can down the road and deal with it later."

We need people with the countries good in mind, people who want this country to survive. Not people mud sucking to special interest groups. Not people who are beholden to unions. Not people who are beholden to corporations. We need real people in the seats. We need doctors, farmers, business men that know how to make a business work. We need real people that know how to make things work and work right. Not people that will take a couple million in donations in a few years to get a policy on the floor for vote. We need people that will tell the big money interest groups and corporations to go soak.

We need real people. Not politicians.

    We have already made a good start.

    Almost all of the New Republicans that got elected to the House, have never been Politicians.

    Since you care, I hope that you were out Supporting these Non-Politicians.

    We will stop electing politicians when the Fanatical Muslims take over and kill as many of us as they can, as they are planning to do.

    I still don't believe that we have a fair election system anymore. Their are way to many inconsistencies.
