If your plan starts with "if only people did..." it's not gonna happen. People won't do it. The status quo will continue to lord over us all.


Like changing how we vote so people can vote for 3rd parties without a spoiler effect. I got first hand experience throughout my life.

Susan Rice could have been our AG or Sec of State if ten million Biden voters had bothered to show up on Nov 5, 2024.

Wow. _Susan Rice_?
