Ah yes, wouldn't it be great if we could actually do that, unfortunately the free thinking, open minded people are a very small minority compared to the kool aid swilling masses here.Its the people that allow thees travesties to continue by not letting your representatives know how you feel and not voting to back up your feelings. If they don't listen you can get rid of them.
They believe everything their politicians and preachers tell them, and that's how they vote.
Blind folded and brainwashed, they flock to the polls.
Until we can cull a large number of these "god fearing" rubes we will be stuck right where we are now for a long time to come.
