Hello people of the planet;

“Daring ideas are like chessmen moved forward; they may be beaten, but they may start a winning game. This is the highest wisdom that I own; freedom and life are earned by those alone who conquer them each day anew. - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe The foundation of what we call the American Dream was designed by men who owned slaves and for whom the right to vote was tied to land ownership; lands that had never been previously owned, and for which no one was paid. The “freedoms” these men advocated were freedoms meant for themselves in an effort to replace monarchy with oligarchy. Against this backdrop, the American Dream has not gone awry. In fact, it was incredibly successful, given its origins and intent. It’s inconceivable that men who felt that owning human beings was their God-given right could have imagined the freedoms Americans enjoy today, including the freedom to choose self-governance. Given the fact that the phrase, “we the people” only refers to those men who became wealthy in the colonies and who then drafted laws, organized governing bodies and declared war against a distant monarch; we the people who have not assumed the responsibilities of governance and abdicated those responsibilities to others whom we had hoped would act in our best interest, giving them unconstrained authority over our well-being, should not be surprised when those we elected use the power and authority we abdicated, against us. The Haudenosaunee (Ho-deh-no-shaw-nee, known as the Iroquois) had a participatory democracy that worked successfully for over 800 years, until European Monarchs, and then Oligarchs waged war on them. What we know today as Direct Democracy demands an involved, informed, reasonable citizenry that assumes the collective and cooperative authority for its own wellbeing. Given that human beings will never agree on everything, and that what is good for one may not be acceptable to another, it is highly likely that what is lawful in one jurisdiction may be unlawful in another, but that is no different than what we have now. Cultural homogenization is not advocated or indeed possible in a nation as culturally diverse as America. And, just as nations with different customs and beliefs can live in accord with one another, citizens of the same nation who embrace different customs and beliefs should be able to accommodate each other.
“Divide and rule, the politician cries; unite and lead, are watchwords of the wise. Which government is the best? The one that teaches us to govern ourselves. Man is made by his belief. As he believes, so he is. So dream no small dreams for they have no power to move the hearts of men.” - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Strength, wisdom and peace;

Exactly, but let's start an Online Direct Democracy, and thus start the war against Injustice by starting our own banks to double the income of the Bottom 99% of Workers, for many more people will come to your side when you are proactive (for “new” Business & Government solutions), instead of reactive (against “old” Business & Government solutions), which is why what we most immediately need is a comprehensive “new” strategy that implements all our various socioeconomic demands at the same time, regardless of party, and although I'm all in favor of taking down today's ineffective and inefficient Top 1% Management System of Business & Government, there's only one way to do it – by fighting bankers as bankers ourselves, and thus doubling our income from Bank Profits which are 40% of all Corporate Profits; that is, using a Focused Direct Democracy organized according to our current Occupations & Generations. Consequently, I have posted a 1-page Summary of the Strategically Weighted Policies, Organizational Operating Structures, and Tactical Investment Procedures necessary to do this at:

http://getsatisfaction.com/americanselect/topics/on_strategically_weighted_policies_organizational_operating_structures_tactical_investment_procedures-448eo

Join http://finance.groups.yahoo.com/group/StrategicInternationalSystems/ because we need 100,000 “support clicks” at AmericansElect.org in support of the above bank-focused platform.

Most importantly, remember, as cited in the first link, that as Bank Owner-Voters in your 1 of 48 "new" Business Investment Groups (or "new" Congressional Committees) you become the "new" Online Congress, and related “new” Businesses, REPLACING the "old" Congress, and related “old” Businesses, according to your current Occupations & Generations, called a Focused Direct Democracy.

Therefore, any Candidate (or Leader) therein, regardless of party, is a straw man, a puppet, a political opportunist, just like today; what's important is the STRATEGY – the sequence of steps – that the people organize themselves under in Military Internet Formation of their Individual Purchasing Power & Group Investment Power. In this, sequence is key, and if the correct mathematical sequence is followed then it results in doubling the income of the Bottom 99% of Workers from today's Bank Profits, which are 40% of all Corporate Profits.

Why? Because there are Natural Social Laws – in mathematical sequence – that are just like Natural Physical Laws, such as the Law of Gravity. You must follow those Natural Social Laws or the result will be Injustice, War, etc.

The FIRST step in Natural Social Law is to CONTROL the Banks as Bank Owner-Voters. If you do not, you will inevitably be UNJUSTLY EXPLOITED by the Top 1% Management System of Business & Government who have a Legitimate Profit Motive, just like you, to do so.

Consequently, you have no choice but to become Candidates (or Leaders) yourselves as Bank Owner-Voters according to your current Occupations & Generations.

So JOIN the 2nd link, and spread the word, so we can make 100,000 support clicks at AmericansElect.org when called for, at exactly the right time, by an e-mail from that group, in support of the above the bank-focused platform. If so, then you will see and feel how your goals can be accomplished within the above strategy as a “new” Candidate (or Leader) of your current Occupation & Generation.
