The Political Pendulum
Was Never About Democracy
Description:... Disgusted by Political Fighting? Frustrated by the Inertia of Congress? We, the People, together, can redirect politics. This book points out the error of Single Congressional Seat Districts, the usurpation of power by political parties, and outlines what has to be done to get back to the original founders' vision of Congress.Political parties have always been about power and never about democracy. Politicians entice you with vague benefits and scare you with potential losses. Political parties are not about fixing problems, they are about getting your vote. On the other hand, Congress should be about fixing problems. We must not confuse politics with governance. We need to invest our votes in representatives instead of political parties.There is a path back to proportional representation so that those of us caught between two powerful parties can have a voice. You don't have to accept that only two choices are possible, but we can't just keep waiting for things to get better. We must find our voices and make it clear that Washington's business as usual isn't good enough!
