I personally...
by screwjack2008

...always thought we should select a mob of say, 1000 citizens from all walks of life to descend on Washington D.C. once a year, drag our elected officials out into the street and beat them within inches of their lives. Just to keep them in line. I think the founding fathers overlooked a great opportunity here.

Maybe a lottery type selection process. Hey, a guy can dream....

Oh I think we just need to get the congress critters to emulate the first continental congress and have duels and cane fights. That would thin out folks like Strom Thurmond and McCain.

Now that's a lottery ticket I would buy! In fact, I bet the proceeds from it would clean up the national debt in no time - fix two problems at once.

You, sir, are a genius. This is a Nobel-worthy idea. It puts we the people back in democracy.

The sooner we can get started on this, the better.
