UPDATE of 19 Oct to resurface the CORE COMMON ISSUE and add THIRD PARTY book reviews (immediately below the line).  The legislative proposal still needs work, e.g. ballot access not well covered, but this is  the starting point.  It was created by Jim Turner and Robert Steele based in large part on points made by Ralph Nader is his book Crashing the Party–Taking on the Corporate Government in an Age of Surrender.  We cannot understand why Ralph Nader, Ron Paul, Cynthia McKinney, and Jackie Salit–and Mike Bloomberg–don't get serious about this ONE THING they can all agree on….

Only recently have major financial figures such as John Bogle and Peter Peterson come forward with works that call into question the integrity, santiy, and viability of the Republic as it is now being looted by Wall Street and the two-party tyranny.  Below are several titles worthy of study, with links to the summary reviews of those titles by Robert Steele.  Below them are twice as many titles capturing the spirit of the Republic that has been in re-gestation for decades.  The mood of Middle America is clear: we want our Republic back, and we want both government and commerce to be open, honest, and in the public service.  We are going to get what we want by 2012, peacefully, on the strength of our numbers and our common collective intelligence.
