Peace is the only path to peace. We do not practice democracy in America. We are a majority of 100 million non-partisan voters and a minority of two party registered voters, but we allow the media and the two parties to bully the choice that is the REAL power of the BALLOT BOX that is our sovereignty defined in the U.S. Constitution. THERE WERE SIX not TWO on the ballot nationally. FOUR WERE FOR PEACE AND REVERSING THE MIDDLE EAST POLICY TO HUMANITARIAN AID ONLY and BRING THE TROOPS HOME, cut the Military Budget that is red ink in the trillions and an offense against world order, restore world order and safety! Protect the Federal reserve, NO MORE BAILOUTS. Constitutional Party, Chuck Baldwin, Libertarian Party, Bob Barr, Republican Party, John McCain, Green Party, Cynthia McKinney, Independent Candidate, Ralph Nader, and Democrat Party, Barak Obama. We are only 36 million registered Democrats and over 100 million registered Independents. Where did the media get the privilege of saying the two parties are the 'system' in place and you cannot change it? The four challengers IF PRESENTED TO THE NATION would offer the VALID PLATFORMS AND HONEST GOVERNMENT LEADERSHIP due and likely win by a Majority. We are currently trying to get Instant Runoff Voting to happen by netting 100,000 validated signatures by Nov. 18 to make IRV the ballot format to rank the candidates and have instant runoff if the 1st choice does not show a proven winner at the first round, then your 2nd choice if the 1st was dropped as the least, will be the 1st choice to support the majority and net a winner and majority rule. I would rank the SIX this way, Nader=1, McKinney=2, Barr=3, Baldwin=4, McCain=5, and Obama=6. Truth is I would prefer no vote for either of the two parties. THE CHANGE REQUIRED was offered and on the ballot, but was not before the voters. We need to see the candidates on the ballot during the campaigns, and force merits to show a national agenda and a true leader. Villains and war are not likely to win.

Corruption and other problems there, will not change. We should pull out.

I think it is time to call it quits and focus on the economy. The war is out of hand and apparently the people either don't like the US being there or do not want to be free. Vietnam all over again - massive life loss with no good results.
