Hats off to you, MM, good thread, and practical set of priorities.

I suppose I'd stop short of fomenting revolution... today, anyway

I'd do the following:

1) Outlaw corporate/commercial access to elected offices; like you, MM, my top priority. But I'd have stiff penalties, like public executions on Wall Street... No more Enron CEOs getting off easy with massive heart attacks while on vacation in Aspen.

2) Enforce the constitution and get God away from our rights and freedom

3) Like PB4 said, term limits

4) Make viable options to the two party system (although, the one party system seems to work well in the vote counting )

5) Keep the Kennedys away from girls, booze, drugs and automobiles

6) And will someone give Bush a blow job so we can impeach his ass...

Peace!
