I think we should just ban religion altogether and be done with it. According to my country on Nation States, you can ban religion and still have a "Very Good" civil rights rating.Kick the extremist and religious nutcases off the wagon and you might surprise yourself at how many of us would be willing to hop on.Jim11 said:Might as well be resigned to it.

LOL. No.. I quickly made my way over to the Obama camp after she finally conceded (in what was her best speech of the entire campaign. Really speaks to the dumpster fire that her candidacy was in 2008.)Were you a member of PUMA?Still here boys. Clinton's biggest fan dating back to 2008.

Which of my positions do you consider "extreme"?Says the extremist nut-case from the left.Kicking the extremists and religious nutcases off the wagon would render the GOP to green party status.

I agree with this but once you get past the rhetoric and name-calling, I've also found that people can usually agree on a reasonable middle ground. The problem is that the political parties have little to gain in finding a middle ground when the political apparatus is built around campaigning and control of the process, as opposed to actual governance. Meanwhile special interests poor money into the system on typically polarized platforms, driving the wedge in the middle even further apart.The problem with "reform" is that it can mean very different things to different people. Some people want to "reform" the tax code by adding brackets, increasing rates on the "greedy rich", and making it more progressive, while others want to do the opposite, etc.It's basically outlined in the things that would make me consider voting Republican. Expanding on that a little, I think the most important things for the next century would be:WWAoDD?There is absolutely nothing wrong with corporate profitability. There's not even really anything wrong with our overall economic growth if you account for the drag created by gov't cutbacks. The problem is the increasing degree to which corporate and overall economic growth is disconnected from middle class growth and increased opportunity across all socioeconomic segments.
I'm on board with the idea of reworking the corporate tax code, which seems mainly to exist to keep lobbyists busy. I don't think it's currently a drain of any significant measure on our economic growth, however, and reforming it by itself won't help the distribution problems.
Education reform, with an emphasis on developing critical thinking and life competency in primary education and making it less costly for individuals to pursue college and advanced degrees
Public investment in R&D, and next generation energy, transportation, and communication infrastructure
Tax and entitlement reform that I mentioned before and I think is critical

No doubt. There are a huge number of better choices on the Republican side. Jeb = capitulation.Lets see Jed Bush vs Hillary, hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, I think we have a winner, HILLARY
