Do any of them have a handle on what an average citizen wants or needs from the government?
Have they gotten so far away from the average working American they actually know what is best? Not just what is prosperous?

AMEN!!!!!
THAT could be the biggest problem we face is that our politicians have entered service with THEIR agenda and not OUR agenda. They look after themselves and their party in that order.
The ONLY way to fix this problem is for a 98% voting turnout nationwide in 2008. We HAVE to send EVERYONE a message that this is not acceptable any more.

Excellent question. I am sick and tired of the Elitists running things, and letting the globalists control our money, using the Private Federal Reserve, and forcing us to pay an illegal, unconstitutional income tax, and circumventing the Constitution and the Bill of Rights in any way they can get away with it, and using scare tactics to make us afraid enough to accept an illegal war, and accept the Patriot act, so they can slowly take our rights away. And so many other things along the same lines.
I want to see this country back into the hands and control of the PEOPLE were it belongs. No more fixed elections, either!!!

If they just believed as i do this country would be the greatest.
I BELIEVE the strength of our nation lies with the individual and that each person’s dignity, freedom, ability and responsibility must be honored.
I BELIEVE in equal rights, equal justice and equal opportunity for all, regardless of race, creed, sex, age or disability.
I BELIEVE free enterprise and encouraging individual initiative have brought this nation opportunity, economic growth and prosperity.
I BELIEVE government must practice fiscal responsibility and allow individuals to keep more of the money they earn.
I BELIEVE the proper role of government is to provide for the people only those critical functions that cannot be performed by individuals or private organizations and that the best government is that which governs least.
I BELIEVE the most effective, responsible and responsive government is government closest to the people.
I BELIEVE Americans must retain the principles that have made us strong while developing new and innovative ideas to meet the challenges of changing times.
I BELIEVE Americans value and should preserve our national strength and pride while working to extend peace, freedom and human rights throughout the world.
FINALLY, I believe the Republican Party is the best vehicle for translating these ideals into positive and successful principles of government.

HELL YEAH!!!! There needs to be a stop to them. Controlling mainstream media. The Federal Reserve with it's fraudulent background forcing us to pay an unconstitutional tax on income. They already choose who's going to be the next president. The only thing we can do is inform other citizens to see past the lies and hopefully in theory something will happen to bring an end to the lies and deceit.

Most Americans can't name the congressional representatives from their state.They don't care about much more than getting their hands on something new and shiny.They tend to tune out anything which challenges them to think in the abstract.If it's not Britney shaving her head or the hunt for Anna Nicole's baby's daddy,they're not gonna pay attention.
Those in government realize this and just pretty much rule without fear of consequences.

YES. and in a lot of cases, NO they don't know what an average citizen wants or needs.
there needs to be term limits for Congress in addition to the president's office.

America was founded by "Elitists"!
And Thank God for that!
But - Congress has gotten way out of control when we stopped hanging horse thieves!
They run for Congress so that they can start their own political dynasties and live like Kings who they think they are!

They do not do what is prosperous. We would have no welfare system if that were true.
