Electoral Crime Today
• There are EIGHT validated national parties:
Constitution, Democratic, Green, Libertarian,
Natural Law, Reform, Republican, Socialist
• Congress can mandate that all federal
elections include all eight parties on the ballot
• Congress can mandate that all debates for
federal elections include candidates from all
eight parties

Two-Party Tyranny
• Nine times Congress has been asked to pass
electoral reform opening ballots to all parties
• At the State level, the two parties conspire to
exclude the other six parties while cheating
the non-incumbent party with electoral fraud
• Getting money out will not fix the problem—
we need across the board electoral reform

Electoral Reform Possible
• Occupy listened & then lost it
• Consensus Electoral Reform Act of 2012 exists
• These are the elements:
01 Process (Integrity)
02 Ballot Access (Same)
03 People Vote, Not States
04 Put All Initiatives to Vote
05 Open Debates All Levels
http://tinyurl.com/OSE-ROOT
06 Cabinet Named
07 Open Registration
08 Tightly-Drawn Districts
09 Public Funding ONLY
10 Open Legislation
http://tinyurl.com/EOR-Hack
Bottom Line
• We can still hold a national electoral reform
summit in September and DEMAND the
passage of the Electoral Reform Act of 2012
• We can still form a people’s candidacy with a
coalition cabinet and go for $1 billion.
• We can still occupy the home offices of every
Senator and Representative and force the
issue of electoral reform in time for 2012.

Part 2: Battle for the
Soul of the Republic
• Top Secret America is a benchmark book
• “Top Secret America” is an Administrative Law state, an inverted
democracy, a totalitarian attempt to micro-manage everything from
agriculture to water (the latter now under military control according
to the latest national security decision memorandum).
• The “complexes” range across every functional area from
Agriculture through Defense, Education, Energy, Health, to Water
• The reason Congress strives to micro-manage is clear: this is how
they extort money, using micro-management to frame earmarks
and exemptions.

Integrity Lost
• Integrity has been lost – government is hollow
• Cabinet does not represent the public – Secretaries
represent the recipients of taxpayer dollars, not
those paying the taxes.
• Congress is totally corrupt – discounts Treasury by
95% to secure a standard 5% kick-back
• Fraud waste and abuse are documented – 47% in
Agriculture, 50% in Health, perhaps $75% in Defense

Secession, Nullification,
and/or a Second Republic
• All three branches of the federal government
are completely corrupt – do not represent We
• Time to abolish the existing “government” controlled by the
two-party tyranny of treason
• States should threaten secession and demand a Constitutional
Convention…but first we have to cleanse each STATE of its
local two-party tyranny
• We need to rebuild the USA from the bottom-up, at Human
Scale, with integral resilience, which is to say, true deep
independence from any external authority.

Bottom Line
• We’re not as stuck as we might think.
• America the Beautiful is rich beyond measure.
• We’ve simply let common crooks take over
Congress, destroy democracy, and shake-down
the financial and corporate communities
• There is NOTHING we cannot fix, and fix quick,
if we restore integrity to the electoral process
and thence to the government.

confiscation and redistribution
• Must create infinite wealth by empowering the five

• Truth & Reconciliation with Compassion, NOT
“Justice” in Industrial-Era terms…non-zero win-win
• Open Everything must include Open Minds, Open
