We need to take our country back. Our freedoms are slowly eroding away. Only big corporations can and do afford healthcare. Our deficit is higher than it has ever been with no end in sight. We are in a war we started and had no business doing. Lobbyists get their way and the rest of us are left holding the bag. Corporate greed seems to be running rampant. Companies move off shore to avoid taxes and to hire super cheap labor. Oil companies are making obscene profits. We've dipped into Social Secuity so much that every time a baby boomer gets their report it says thay have to wait longer and longer for full benefit.
Instead of a revolution with guns. Let us have one in the media and by contacting our representatives. They are supposed to represent us. Maybe the reason they don't is that they don't hear from us. All they hear from are special interests in their district or state. Pay attention to news events and take action when our leaders screw something up. Stop the nonsence bickering and posturing and get down to business for us.
Childish things like calling french fries "freedom fries" because France doesn't happen to agree with us has to stop. We are grownups and should act like grownups.
The 2008 election is a great place to start. Join a campaign or a PAC and let your voice be heard over and over again.

Depends.
A revolution in method? In the way we think? Sure!
A revolution of arms? In who has the physical power? Not me.
Honestly? There is nothing wrong with the old one, but, we as a People have strayed away from that path, and allowed our government to make laws and encourage corporations to act in ways that does not coincide with how our Founding Fathers envisioned this nation. We need to have a revolution of homecoming, where we embrace that which was envisioned when we first formed.

I DO!
Our current political organizations are too fixated on gaining profit and wealth for the politicians, and not concerned at all with actually working on behalf of "America". The people that make up this once great country are largely ignorant to the machinations of the "Government" and it is time the populous' voice is restored. If people continue to support our current system, it will soon be "too late" to successfully achieve a revolution without great anguish here on our own soil.

Go to school, get an education in American history not PC history. There is no need for a revolution.

I do!
Let's get rid of (vote out) all the current politicians in Washington and start electing some normal people instead. (no lawyers please) Let's get back to the limited government we were given. cut the federal budget by 50% and tell the rest of the world we won't carry their water anymore, if they have a problem in their part of the world let them work it out, but if they are dumb enough to attack us then let's use the full force of the US military and make them wish they were never born.

Not at all. Just some political reform to keep our government under control, like it's supposed to be.

I think we have plenty of revolving Americans already. You can't pin down people like Kerry or Obama as it is.
