For those who haven't seen the enlightening documentary HBO has been airing called "hacking democracy" check it out at: video.google.com/videoplay?docid=8367786376074634512&q=hacking%20democracy&hl=enI don't know how long this link is going to be able to be up. You'll need about an hour and a half to watch the whole thing. Quite plain and simple evidence, right in front of your eyes, that our current voting system has some major problems...like not being an avenue for real democracy. After watching this last night I was quite pissed off. A settling thought was the old idea that, "everything happens for a greater good, no matter how tragic it may seem up front". I am confident, largely based on my life experience, that in hindsight we will be able to see the wisdom behind things like this. Until then, it can only be "playing maybe". Peace PS - You'll need the regular high speed capabilities to see the movie
