The correct next steps to win back the confidence of the American voter
For Obama: Fire Tim Geithner, Larry Summers, and Rahm Emmanuel, along with anyone who looks, acts, or talks like them.

For the Senate: Reject the re-nomination of Ben Bernanke.

For the House: Ask Elizabeth Warren and Neil Barofsky what needs to be done to stop the looting and pillaging from Wall St., and put their ideas into action in a clean, non-pork/favors-laden bill.

For all three: Take a serious look at what creates and keeps jobs here in the United States, and act on that information immediately.



Do this and we'll add 10 points (minimum) of favorable opinion overnight.

1. I just signed a petition from Move On
to get "Democrats to get it right this time" my added comment was to fire the top three you mentioned. Maybe if enough of us do that...????

3. K&R - Maybe hire Stiglitz, along with Warren & Barofsky, and....


....kill the Senate bill, make the Republicans filibuster and publicly vote down an uncorrupted Medicare-for-All bill, as desired by 72% of Americans, and hold their feet to the fire in November.

4. It looks to me like the lesson they learned was that liberals and progressives want Conservative...
government.

The problem with sending a message in an election is that they are way to easy to misread.
