    We could vote for someone else. We just have to do three very important things:

    1. Stop bickering amongst ourselves.
    2. Come together under a single unified stratagem even if we don’t all agree 100% on it. This can be substituted for coming under a unified banner.
    3. Continue pushing after the election has ended instead of the usual “Oop, election done. All good.” and then panic four years later.

    ALL OF THESE, each individual step, are massive steps to expect and to take. Yet they are what would fix things. The biggest hurdle, in my opinion, is finding leaders people can rally behind. Because make no mistake: Anyone leading this would be in significant danger, and I think most people know that.

      Pushing what exactly? Is there some kind of button everyone else is aware of? Perhaps it’s a lever?

        Sure is: Bottom-up reform and mass peaceful civil unrest in the form of large marches and demonstrations, to use a few magic button words. These do work. However, and I’m with our country’s leadership on this thought process: They don’t expect us to be able to pull it off.
