| The structure is now in place to advance a core set of “tri-partisan” (i.e. majorities of Democrats, Republicans, and independents), principles and solutions that will unite a majority of Americans and effect real change now and beyond the 2008 elections. That blueprint for real change is codified in the “Platform of the American People” - a solutions-oriented agenda that represents a fundamental break from the red-versus-blue status quo. This unique political document validates our belief that the scale of change required is so large that a new approach (e.g. a Red, White and Blue Platform) to public policy is necessary and should be implemented across all levels of government, in all 513,000 elected offices. Top 10 Reasons YOU Should Support the Platform
- English should be the official language of government.
- We want our elected leaders in Washington to focus on increasing the energy supplies of the United States and lowering the costs of gasoline and electricity.
- The option of a single rate system should give taxpayers the convenience of filing their taxes with just a single sheet of paper.
- Every worker should continue to have the right to a federally supervised secret ballot election when deciding whether to organize a union.
- Keeping the reference to “One Nation Under God” in the Pledge of Allegiance is very important.
- Congress should make it a crime to advocate acts of terrorism, violent conduct, or the killing of innocent people in the United States.
- We should dramatically increase our investment in math and science education.
- We believe that if research indicates we could build clean coal plants in the United States with no carbon emissions, it would be important to build such plants as rapidly as possible.
- Illegal immigrants who commit felonies should be deported.
- We support giving a large financial prize to the first company or individual who invents a new, safer way to dispose of nuclear waste products.
If you support these ten ideas then we need your help.

[*]Keeping the reference to “One Nation Under God” in the Pledge of Allegiance is very important. Why? It wasn't in there during the first half of the 1900's. It was only added in the 50's to differentiate America from those "Godless Communists" as they were called. It wasn't in there during WWI and WWII. Does having it in there now make us more morally fit than the generations that got us through the great depression, financial collapse, the dust bowl, and two world wars? - Quote :

So long as it's defined that there must be intent to cause real harm. Making all inflammatory speech a crime would gut the 1st amendment - Quote :

No, they should be executed. - Quote :

Not a bad idea. | |
