[ale] OMG politics goes digital?

[robertheaven at mediaone.net (Robert Heaven)]

I have the solution... stop "electing" the mouthpiece that the big money 
corporations put up for election and start "selecting" our government 
representatives by random draft of ordinary citizens. If we're smart 
enough to serve on jury duty, standing in judgement of peoples lives, 
then we're MORE than smart enough to serve in congress. Then, and ONLY 
then, will we have a government "of the people, by the people and for 
the people" instead of the mess we have now. (i.e., by the corporation, 
for the corporation)
