No one forces anyone to vote for any candidate. No argument that it costs a lot of money to run a campaign, and perhaps that should be changed. But ultimately, I think the majority of the country (myself included) thinks that the best way isn't to tear the country apart and start from scratch, it's to work with what we have. And outside of just money, there are plenty of other ways to get involved, starting in your community. Start with your local representatives if you want, and clean house from there. Go door to door in your neighborhood and talk to people one-on-one and get the movement started!

Again you can't change it by voting for candidates when they all bow to the same master. You must first remove those who control the system.

  Mole people? Seriously, who? CEOs? Wall Street CEOs? CEOs tend to act according to the board & shareholders, and if they don't, they tend to get replaced with someone else. The largest shareholders tend to be places who get money from 401k plans, or pension funds. Want to send a real message? Convince everyone to stop contributing to 401k's or their pension funds. The money dries up, Wall Street feels the pinch in a BIG way (to the tune of trillions), the big corporations fold / find a new CEO that will convince people to put their money back into the markets.

    You should do more research into the subject, sadly, is well documented but people tend not to believe or acknowledge it. In fact the knee jerk react when it is mentioned is to call everyone who has looked into it a cook or a quack. Regardless there is a group of individuals who have been pushing their agenda for well over a 100 years now, they have been instrumental in enacting federal taxes, the federal reserve, the moving off of the gold standard, and pretty much every war we have fought. The control the candidates and those who serve in their cabinets. You can start by looking at www.cfr.org. Kings, Presidents, Congressman all are interchangeable and just pawns to them.
