Yes, in two years will be a election and that is the time to vote, that is a part of the on going Ameican revolution. It is possible to over throw the goverment as the framers of the constitution planed. We will never need guns to change the way things are run because we can just vote the bad ones out of office.

There was already a revolution in America, the only one that will ever count.
The revolution that occured was sufficient, the citizens just need to live up to what was already planned.
True patriots should band together to make our system work.
It is true that our system is peppered with corruption, but it is still the best one in the world.
citizens need to make our government officials really accountable to the premise, that ours is a government of the people, by the people, and for the people.
We attempt to do this through our political system.
Perhaps when we start allowing people who are not politicians earn as much as they want, but put a cap on politicians salaries.
Perhaps if a politician was only allowed to earn 70,00 dollars a year while in office, and own no more than one million dollars in assets to run for high office.
This is not to say that citizens while not in office could not continue to work, and better themselves to a maximum degree.
I just think that big moneyed individuals have no right to create monopolies at the expense of the American citizenery.
I believe such a plan would attract more patriots, who's only motives would be to really help the people, not to line their pockets.
I see our system of government to need a band-aid not surgery.

Be cautious with this question. You do not want to provoke any government anger. I do however believe that America has left the founding father's idea of what America should look like. The executive branch should be the least powerful, the courts were never given the right to create legislation from the bench and congress.... well has been corrupted by money and protect the interests of the people with money rather than their constituants. America is in our hands every time we vote. Our power as citizens is not in violence but with our voice. Another issue is who cares? I do not think that mst American's care about our government. Sean Hannity was showing pictures of Dick Chenney and Brittany Spears... of course everyone knew Brittany but everyone was lost with the politicians. One person was asked if they were Republican or Democrat and he replied he was a Republican. He was then asked if he was going to vote for Hillary Clinton and he said yes because she was "for the people." A revolution would never happen in modern America because so few care.

pugsley!
" for what?"
really!
you slept through government class, didnt you?
The Declaration of Independence states that "Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed [that's us, folks], --
"That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."
From top to bottom, this government has become destructive not only to us, but the world.
The Declaration goes on, "Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. --"
We the people have the power to do what the Declaration tells us we must do, if only we would exercise it. We don't have to resort to armed rebellion, either. We can bring the country to a halt with national strikes. A few of those and the leaders of Congress, be they Democrats or Republicans, will get the message, march into the White House and tell the Presisent and vice president that it's over and hand them over to the US marshals to be, as former Ambassador Joe Wilson put it, "frog-marched" to the nearest jail cell to await trial for their crimes.
**There are people that yawn and ask "for what?"
and have no clue what's going on around them.
Next thing you know, they live in a country with no rights and no health care....
They need a little poke in the ribs to wake them up!

It's coming no matter who likes it or wants it. The great melting pot is turning into a cess pool of filth. Political Correctness has enslaved the minds of america's youth. This national experiment called democracy is slowly showing that no one governement can viably represent so many different cultures and races on the same level without one of them getting the short end of the stick. And the one's that come up short will revolt. Such is the highest law of nature. The preservation of one's own kind.

YEAH! AND Americans can revolutionize by watching the news, and asking stupid questions like "Why do Liberals", or "why do Repubs?" On Yahoo Answers..
Americans are too lazy to do anything. That's why war supporters only support the war with a fake and proud testimony. Yet they do it from an armchair in their home, or that liberal against people trashing the environment won't even wake their a** up in the morning to clean a highway or something.
It's why we think diet pills work, but yet we still of an obesity problem!
It's why we have high school drop outs.
IT'S BECAUSE AMERICANS ARE STUPID! Even if we did revolt, we'd end up selling the power to another moron.

Yes, with votes.
I do hope that we can vote out those weird American Hating Democrats that just took over Congress.
We WILL have Democrat President in 2008, and along with a Democrat Congress, we will all be Little Commie Goose Steppers.
