    If only there was a way we could put candidates in position to enact the change we want…. Hmmmm… Seriously, like… What if we created a system where we the people do something… I don’t know- choose their favorite candidate to do these things in a competition of sorts to see who gets to lead the country…

    What should we call it?

          Not at all. Voting is defensive. Activism is offensive. We vote for the least worst candidate put forth by a major party in national level elections that stands a chance to win. All we need that person to do is stay out of the way. Then we vote for super progressive loval candidates (school boards, city council, etc).
