FREEDOM OF ASSEMBLY MUST APPLY TO CONGRESSIONAL "DISTRICTS"
I read where our candidate is aware of congress does not
express the will of the people.
Here is the reason that is the very case:
you have one opinion on every issue, and your
neighbor across the street, and in the same
congressional district, has some other opinion.
Therefore, your congressman votes the way he wants to.
The obvious solution to this mess is for the electors to assemble
themselves into groups anyway they want to under regulations of their
state , and elect themselves the congressman who will represent that interest.
Your objection: That won't be equal representation.
Answer: oh yes it will. That's what the census is for. Once it is determined that the state of
Georgia is entitled to 13 congressmen, then there can be only 13 groups of electors in the state
of Georgia who have the power to elect themselves a congressman.
With computers, this system will actually be easier to administer than drawing
lines on maps, which has already been proven to be the impossibility to conform
to all court decisions.
Any elector must be recognized to organize a new group for representation. And the computer
is just the ideal machine to make each elector have his vote in only one of the congressional groups
of the state.
When the new movement has enough electors signed up, then the computer knows where they would be coming FROM,
and therefore can send those electors in the most LOSING group that they will have to seek representation in some other group.
Therefore, the state can have new congressmen every two years, which is more in line with the U.S.
constitution.
And YOUR chances of having a congressman who represents your interest will UP dramatically !

The Electoral College
Submitted on February 28th, 2007 by Donald GrbacThe Electoral College is an obsolete concept. Time has proven that small groups (like electors) cannot perform in a democratic fashion as well as the majority of voters - as long as they are properly informed.
There may be many opinions out there, but the majority opinion will be the right one if the sampling includes all the people. There is wisdom in numbers. Remember the old saying "the larger the number of ideas, the more ideas that are good ones". Good ideas attract the most attention.

Maybe the language of the elections statutes in your state
are different from the language in the state of Georgia.
In Georgia , the "voter" is , at best, the elector who
cast some vote in an election.
Georgia has the state-wide system of registration of electors.
The media in Georgia has this continuous program to deceive
the electors of Georgia that they are voters.
That does not change anything ! In Georgia , we remain the electors.
What does the statutes in your state call the person who is registered
to cast some vote in the state's elections ?

I think my state has similar language.
Submitted on March 2nd, 2007 by Donald GrbacBut that language can be changed through initiative laws once we have enacted the National Initiative for Democracy.

MAYBE THERE IS NO REASON TO WAIT
Submitted on March 2nd, 2007 by pacomI REALLY DON'T SEE ANY REASON TO WAIT ON THIS ONE.
We could set up a computer system to register those in each state who want
to vote for Representative. We can have a way for initiatives to make the
rules for each "district" , and rules for each state: such as how many must
be registered to "bump" the least popular district. The rules should be allowed
to be different for each state.
Then, when our system has MORE people registered in one of the states
than the "official" system in that state has , we will hold an election for
ALL the Congressmen for that state.
After the election , those elected will go to Congress, and
present their credentials. Of course, they will be denied their seats.
Then, we will go to the Supreme Court of the United States and convince
the Justices that these Representatives are MORE likely representatives
of the people of the state in question, AND that the former representatives
do not meet ALL the requirements of the U S Courts , whereas, these Representatives
DO meet all the orders of all the US courts.
Should the U S Justices THEN rule against us , we will then proceed to elect
Representatives from every State with this system , and upon completion,
ASSEMBLE the LEGITIMATE CONGRESS of the United States, the second order of
business: devise the plan to elect the President of the United States.
The third order of business: devise the plan to set up the COURTS of the
United States.
I know of nothing that prohibits the people from coming to our courts
to pray for relief, equity, and justice. All we have to do is DELIVER !

And you think ...
Submitted on March 5th, 2007 by Donald GrbacThat's going to happen sooner than the National Initiative?
We'll see.

THE NATIONAL INITIATIVE IS ALREADY THE COMPUTER SYSTEM
Submitted on March 6th, 2007 by pacomdONALD:
? Why should you be opposed to computers ?
? Don't you know that The National Initiative is the design specifications
for the computer system to handle initiatives of the people to make laws ?
And on that SAME system can be installed the system to handle state-wide
initiatives.
The critical requirement is to make the system fraud-proof.
You aren't going to make any points with our candidate by being opposed
to computers ! He was one of the first in the country to attack that fraud
of counting votes by hand !
I think Mike Gravel can just give the word , and the computers of the National
Initiative will be able within three months to handle the elections for U S Representatives
in at least ONE of the 50 United States.
Of course, you don't mind that I recommend that state be the Great State
of Georgia , do you ? Back in the year 1976 , I circulated this petition
door to door canvas, to have Congressional Districts without borders,
and you might be interested to know that 80 % of those contacted SIGNED
the petition !
Try it out in your area , and write us as to what percent of the inhabitants
would sign such petition.
And while you are about that , you might want to mention Mike Gravel.
Take some donations ! ( Your local authorities might have you register to
solicit those.)
Pass out some literature -- at least give them some card with Mike Gravel's
name, and this website, and the WIKI address.
We can win this thingy !

Computers are good - I agree!
Submitted on March 6th, 2007 by Donald GrbacCurrently NI4D is collecting its votes by the Internet. But they have also collected some by U.S. Mail. We will see how things go as it gets more popular.
Every computer expert has major reservations about the use of computers for voting as it is done today. They can be hacked! I don't know how NI4D handles security on this. However, most all experts agree that computer systems can be designed to be reliable for voting. And user verifiable paper trails are mandatory for recounts.
Aside from actually voting, the Internet is a fantastic medium for organizing as long as it remains open with net-neutrality - keeping out corporate control. Someday truly secure Internet voting may be invented also.
I'd like to see a "virtual town hall" web site for each local town and village come into being across the nation. This would be a place where every citizen could give an opinion on any and all local issues. This data could be used to set up actual meetings with local officials to solve problems, and to create resolutions or initiatives for higher government offices - county, state, and national.
