Objective-Setting Teaches Paradigms, Politics and the World

Money, Special Interests, and Lobbies are the problem...along with strategies without substantive policies or platforms.

Many Americans are burned-out with the General Election only Months away and no sign of clear platforms. Strategic moves by Republicans and Democrats prevents straight talk. I have wondered for 25 years or more what forum would produce lucid plans and ideas.

It would be better for all of us to work on creating a forum that forces elected officials and others to put out plans for their office...I used to believe that politicians couldn't afford the TV air time, now I just think politicians should be forced to put out substantive messages on free blocks of network or cable channels. I have to admit taking all the big money out of national politics, getting rid of foreign and corporate lobbies sounds good on the surface. And it does seem that the Middle Class doesn't have a lobby. Money is the problem and removing money is the solution. Some how everyone needs representation in the Government, but wonder if that ends up shorting somebody.

I realize that through history socialist have decried capitalism or the evils of money. I am not doing that. Transparent accounting is accepted in stock markets, financial accounting and in politics. The issue here is tracking millions of dollars in small and large donations.
