It seem's that in todays world of politic's that you can't tell them by their actions anyways. Let them stand on their own, and hold them accountable to their decisions. They should vote what the people who elected them want, not what they want. Or who ever gives them money wants.

Wouldn't that be something? I think that they would be too dumbfounded though. I mean, what would they do for political ads and all?

Actually everyone should be doing that now! Its very simple to check a candidates voting record and where he/she actually stands! But no many use bias news reports and false ads to get their info. Anyone even thinking of voting should always check all candidates record. If your own yahoo answers you have access to a PC so its very simple.

There are 435 seats in the House and 100 in the Senate. If there were no parties, then that means there would be 435 separate agendas in the House and 100 separate agendas in the Senate. No laws would ever be made. Actually, that sounds pretty good.

Wouldn't it be great if the only WOULD run on their own records. Heck, the ads before an election are usually just a bunch of mud slinging. I wish for once one of their would tell me WHY I should vote FOR THEM and not just WHY I SHOULD NOT VOTE for their opponent.

No, I do not think so. Call me old fashion but I like knowing what a candidate is suppose to stand for. You will be having people taking sides anyway and the big dollars would really talk to them then.

What an EXCELLENT Idea: Our candidates are better at smearing opponents rather than running on there records. It sure would be Sweet for them to Actually Step Up and run Solely on there records rather than Smear Campaigns.

Very well put. Excellent solution. To bad it would't work. The American voters just need to vote these idiots out of office. We are so worried about who Flavor Flav is going pick on VH1, but we don't give a crap about how corrupt our government is. WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!!!!
