Our elected officials are becoming an aristocracy for our country. Until we reform our electoral process to prevent this type of governmental manipulation, the American voter will receive fewer and fewer choices with less and less getting done in Washington.
One of the two houses of Congress should have its members selected by jury style process on a volunteer basis with education requirements (BA/BS/MA/PHD)or some other manner that allows for no campaigns or money lobbyists to influence them.
How we choose our politicians is the root problem. The appointment process should be eliminated.
Demand Constitutional reform by convention or amendment.
