2011 Grassroots Economic Summit Feb 26

Caring, like most things, should be optional.

This election could have dramatic and wide ranging consequences. Every citizen will be impacted by the results. And isn't that a shame?
I listened to an interesting exchange several days ago. One person was asked by another about the upcoming national election. The man responded with the opinion that he is a busy man and doesn't have time to worry about politicians. Taken aback the 1st man declared that we all need to be engaged because we will all be greatly effected by the results of this election. It became clear that the man had baited his interviewer when he responded, "Ah yes, and isn't THAT the issue?"
The point the man was trying to make was that, if the federal government was bound by the limitations intended by our founders, those of us that are busy raising families, running businesses, serving others, etc. would have the luxury of being disengaged from politics and following our passions without worrying about what the federal government would be up to. Actually, I shouldn't even need to refer to that as a 'luxury'.
The federal government has consistenty, systematically, grown beyond its intended charter regardless of which political party has been at the helm. Perhaps most of us are guilty of accepting increased intrusions so long as they impose a view with which we agree. The paradigm by which we've been conditioned to view elections is based on whether we will be governed from the right or from the left.
I wonder, from where we stand is it possible to return to the founding principles that we should largely be free to govern ourselves?

Open Letter #1 to President Obama

On September 20th, President Obama issued a challenge to the Grass Roots movement to specifically detail what we would do to deal with economic problems.
On October 1st, iCaucus (a “Grass Roots” National Citizens organization) has answered this challenge with the release of "Creating Jobs in America... Stimulating Solution #1 from the American Grass Roots"

This is just the first of a series of open letters to President Obama (and the rest of our out of touch elected officials) that will be released periodically over the next few weeks. The next open letter from iCaucus will spell out how to fix the broken federal budget process in order to stop the out of control spending spree that Washington has embarked upon.
