I am not going to vote, give money or support anyone, until
somebody starts trying to take back the Constitution and start talking War Crimes, Impeachment, Jail Time, and stopping this mad rush of sending the American system of Laws down the toilet, This includes Hillary, Obama, Edwards, the whole lot of candidates that just tell the American people what they want to hear and then do the exact opposite. Somebody has got to come to the table with more than rhetoric. When they start to pay attention to you and me and actually do the "will of the people" then I'll pay attention, until then I may be irrelevant.

5. agreed, 100 percent-- silence is complicity and I won't support anyone...
...complicit in war crimes or the destruction of the founding principles of American justice no matter what letter they have after their name.

7. if elected officials ignore those who voted for them
you think they're gonna pay attention to those who don't?

Now, if you REALLY want to get an elected officials attention - donate BIG money and tie some strings to it.

the only reason freedom isn't free in America is because you have to pay cash for it.

11. Money is the only thing that does get their attention
Phone calls, emails and letters from voters have become an exercise in futility. Voters flooded elected democrats' offices with correspondence prior to the IWR vote. Look how well that worked!

8. In before the lock
Any dissent, any sense of disenchantment with the Democratic Party, any mention of holding our elected officials responsible for their inaction, tends to get locked and purged pretty quickly around here.
