Answer to Sam Waterson's Question on major party ineffeciency

My submitted answer to Sam's question on Yahoo! Answer (please read first by clicking on link) as follows below.

Look no further than the elitist attitude of the political parties that look after their herd rather than address the persistent issues on domestic and global issues.

I suggest we give more support to Ron Paul of Republican Party and Mike Gravel of Democratic Party, because they embody compassion and vigilance for the preservation of Constitutional liberty and restoring the republic as the Founding Brothers intended in their advisement.

The unanimous rejection of the impeachment on George W Bush and Richard B Cheney for truly egregious abuse of power (lying the nation into wars, torture, eavesdropping, irresponsible waste of tax money on the wars at expense of infrastructure & education, record high deficits and national debt, etc) and other violations of the Constitution show that the parties who reject it along with the mainstream media's intentional apathy are complicit in the ruinous corruption of the Constitutional republican principles.

The major parties' intentional negligence of the health of the republic by self-absorbed attitude, ignorance of reality and declaring their unconditional support of a particular Middle East state contrary to the Founding Fathers' stern warning against permanent alliance with foreign powers (G. Washington farewell address), they have betrayed America and its very foundations that promote progressive humanism. The U.S. Constitution is the very basion of the Age of Enlightenment derived from the philosophical and humanitarian writings of Benjamin Franklin, John Locke and Thomas Paine.

At this present time, America have entered the dark period of fear, ignorance, repression and belligerent hostility towards reason like the periods preceding the Age of Enlightenment (17th to early 19th century).

The major parties, because of their love of power, avarice and intertwined alliance with the foreign power, will be instrumental in the beginning of the decline and fall of the American empire if the corruption continues unabated for years and decades, being damned to repeat history.

Our children -- future generations -- cannot afford the perilous damage to the sovereign and national security & welfare of the United States. We must do something to root out the corruption for prosecution, imprisonment, and in some severe cases, execution for high treason.

The Congresspeople -- especially 2006 Democrat electives -- have refused to listen to the People who gave them the chance to turn the nation around to focus on correct course and priorities, and when their prevailing attitude continue after 2008, the vigilant citizenry must have no choice but be organized and secede the states from the federal government.

Alexander Hamilton have stated in Federalist Paper number 28 that when the representatives indeed commit betrayal of the constituency with their regular patterns of hypocrisy, treason and other terrible crimes, the citizenry must rush to arms and demonstrate the real power that remain exclusive to the vigilantly informed People and that no power should be conferred to the Elite (ruling class) faction.

The mainstream and alternative media are complicit in disinformation propaganda. The media is controlled by the power to decide the selection of the candidates and force the people to choose the official candidates with the predisposed bias towards stubborn facts.

Is this what America should have? If Theodore Roosevelt were alive and transported in time, he would be genuinely horrified at the current situation of the system that is presold to the special interests at the expense of the constituency that voted the candidates in the first place only to be thoroughly betrayed time and again.

"It could probably be shown by facts and figures that there is no distinctly (native) American criminal class except Congress." ~ quote attributed to Mark Twain

"Arbitrary power is most easily established on the ruins of liberty abused to licentiousness." ~ G. Washington, 1853

"Interwoven as is the love of liberty with every ligament of your hearts, no recommendation of mine is necessary to fortify or confirm the attachment.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth; as this is the point in your political fortress against which the batteries of internal and external enemies will be most constantly and actively (though often covertly and insidiously) directed, it is of infinite moment that you should properly estimate the immense value of your national union to your collective and individual happiness; that you should cherish a cordial, habitual, and immovable attachment to it; accustoming yourselves to think and speak of it as of the palladium of your political safety and prosperity; watching for its preservation with jealous anxiety; discountenancing whatever may suggest even a suspicion that it can in any event be abandoned; and indignantly frowning upon the first dawning of every attempt to alienate any portion of our country from the rest, or to enfeeble the sacred ties which now link together the various parts...

The nation which indulges towards another a habitual hatred or a habitual fondness is in some degree a slave. It is a slave to its animosity or to its affection, either of which is sufficient to lead it astray from its duty and its interest. Antipathy in one nation against another disposes each more readily to offer insult and injury, to lay hold of slight causes of umbrage, and to be haughty and intractable, when accidental or trifling occasions of dispute occur. Hence, frequent collisions, obstinate, envenomed, and bloody contests. The nation, prompted by ill-will and resentment, sometimes impels to war the government, contrary to the best calculations of policy. The government sometimes participates in the national propensity, and adopts through passion what reason would reject; at other times it makes the animosity of the nation subservient to projects of hostility instigated by pride, ambition, and other sinister and pernicious motives. The peace often, sometimes perhaps the liberty, of nations, has been the victim.

So likewise, a passionate attachment of one nation for another produces a variety of evils. Sympathy for the favorite nation, facilitating the illusion of an imaginary common interest in cases where no real common interest exists, and infusing into one the enmities of the other, betrays the former into a participation in the quarrels and wars of the latter without adequate inducement or justification. It leads also to concessions to the favorite nation of privileges denied to others which is apt doubly to injure the nation making the concessions; by unnecessarily parting with what ought to have been retained, and by exciting jealousy, ill-will, and a disposition to retaliate, in the parties from whom equal privileges are withheld. And it gives to ambitious, corrupted, or deluded citizens (who devote themselves to the favorite nation), facility to betray or sacrifice the interests of their own country, without odium, sometimes even with popularity; gilding, with the appearances of a virtuous sense of obligation, a commendable deference for public opinion, or a laudable zeal for public good, the base or foolish compliances of ambition, corruption, or infatuation." ~ G. Washington, Farewell Address 1796

"God forbid we should ever be twenty years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, and always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to the importance of the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty. ...
And what country can preserve its liberties, if its rulers are not
warned from time to time, that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to the facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure." ~ Thomas Jefferson, 1789
