"Dissent is the highest form of patriotism." ...and also believe, that when we find it necessary, it is our patriotic duty as citizens to make fundamental changes in our government for the good of all our people; for ourselves, our children, and for all future generations of Americans to come. We created this website to educate, inform, and alarm all Americans on a crucial issue regarding our federal government that we consider of vital importance to the health and future of our democracy. We also want this website to serve as a forum for debate of our proposal to reform the United States Congress by defining and enforcing limits on the number of terms that anyone we elect to Congress may serve. This is not about politics. Our two main political parties have been squabbling with each other for as long as anyone can remember, and in the interest of our mission we take no sides in this struggle. This is about the fundamental framework of our government and what makes it work, or rather not work, as is so obviously the situation in Washington today. We see a federal government that has all but abandoned our basic democratic principles and is growing more authoritarian with every legislative success. We fear that authoritarianism will lead to totalitarianism if left unchecked. We are also concerned that because so many of us -- us, as in "We the People" -- have abdicated our responsibilities and involvement in government for so long, we have inadvertently allowed the evolution of a despotic ruling class of politicians who no longer represent our interests and govern in accordance with our wishes, but actually decide for themselves what is best for us, and then seek to mollify any dissent with empty platitudes. Our government was designed to benefit all Americans, but has been perverted by the corrupt career politicians who dominate Congress and who are now using the powers of their office to achieve some grand design of their own that has not been revealed to us. Here then is our story. We have done our best to explain in plain language, and validate through historical reference, why we believe this change is so urgently needed and why you should join our campaign to reform Congress. We hope that as you explore our site you will understand why we believe, and will find that you agree, that immediate and fundamental congressional reform is absolutely necessary to ensure that our federal government is, and will forever remain a government... The culture of corruption perpetuated by career politicians must end! It won't be done if left up to Congress. They have too much to lose! Only the people can win this fight, but only if we rally together! We must get Congress to pass term limits for our own good! It can only be achieved by constitutional amendment! Stand up, America and let's get this job done! We wish there was an easier way! Unfortunately, there isn't! Power to the People! AMEN! |
