Jim Crist: How do we stop America's decline? The country is in trouble and we can all feel it. Where did we go wrong? How do we fix it? Our government is broken. Politicians play for political points and America loses. Our two party system is a joke. The gulf between the two parties is so wide most Americans feel completely unrepresented. This huge divide means there's absolutely no chance of reaching intelligent solutions to fix our problems. We now have an auction-based government, for sale to the highest bidder. Politicians have become nothing more than corporate whores. If we really want our representatives to represent us, let them get their campaign money from us, their constituents. We must amend the constitution so that corporations are NOT people and money is NOT speech.
