My proposal

Hello Everyone,

I am writing everyone a proposal to every American, that is over the age of 18. I am writing to Conservative Republicans, Liberal Democrats, and Apolitical people-- just basically everyone.

I don't know about you, but I am kind of fed up with Washington. In 2008, our President Barack Obama promised he would change Washington DC. He promised that business would be not as usual, and that we would see change. President Barack Obama has not only brought substantial change, he has kept some of the same policies of the Former President. But more than that, President Barack Obama has not changed the tone or stood strong in his principles.

In 2010, The Republicans promised once again to bring "Change to Washington." It's been over a year, employment is still going up-- No budget solutions have been made, and we are still playing partisan politics.

Now the election of 2012 is coming up. Many people believe that if we change hats from "Democrat" to "Republican" that things will change. I am sure there will be some fundamental policy changes, and there will definitely be a different movement. But, I think we can be rest assured that if Campaign Finance Reform and more so Lobbyist Reform does not change- That Washington DC will continue operating the way it has been.

I don't know about you, but I am pissed at how our country is being run. On all three levels and branches of government- our government is out of touch with the American public. This is so evident through our elections, and through the message of the American people. OF ALL Political persuasions!

We have sacrificed so much in the past, our grandfathers have fought two worlds to save us from tyranny. We have fought so hard for freedom and to make sure our democracy is the best in the world. The petty and childish behavior that exists in Washington is not what our grandfathers have fought for.

So, my proposal to everyone in 2012 is an impractical one. I propose that we do not show up to the polls, that we do not campaign, that we do not give any money- That we stay home. More importantly, that we stay home on November 2, 2012. We are saying no to Washington DC-- that we will not vote for any of them. We will not vote for anything we do not believe in. We demand honesty, transparency, free from all special interests.

I know that no one will do this. But, we have a right-- our right is that we can fire and hire these people. We have our right to vote, we should forgo that right-- and in protest, not vote-- To make it clear, we want DRASTIC CHANGE.

Thank you,

David
