My suggested agenda:
- FDR's unrealized Economic Bill of Rights http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=effDfpKYcVo
- Direct democracy to KEEP these reforms -and get others we need- by keeping the people in power. The best project for direct democracy is led by Mike Gravel: http://Vote.org
That's right Evan, it's the simplicity and universality of FDR's Second Bill of Rights that give them the power, and the First Right is the Right to a Job; the other seven and the whole "Second Bill of Rights" fit on one page. The response of even Democratic elected officials, not to mention professional economists to this Second Bill of Rights will be an education in itself!
