Rate by importance

Both these issues are beyond urgent. I know people can multitask. But if serious, heavy lifting effort is to be expended, where is it better applied?

1. sorry, for me they both run together.

[jarnocan]

2. but we need the one before we can hope

for much progress on many other issues. We can work on everything to various degrees of course.

6. I agree there, realized that after I posted but went off to vacuum rather

than edit.

3. Husb2Sparkly, I appreciate very much the way you framed this question.

Top-drawer frame for two big issues. Bravo, that.

I picked #2, but not only because I feel legal remedies are urgently required. My vote for election reform has more to do with my vision of using the 007 novels/films as models for justice for Republicans.

I think it's Dr. No, isn't it? who has the pool of sharks?

Hungry, big, really big and really hungry man-eating white sharks snapping and circling in the pool water... you know that scene.

I'm seeing certain Republican officials, say, certain Republican officials who might have been presiding officers in their respective states over the 2000 and 2004 elections... I see these officials PERHAPS falling victim to those sharks' snapping appetites.

ATTN: MODS. These are fictional sharks. Dr. No is a fictional character with a fictional shark pool. No actual Republicans are harmed as a result of this post.

The idea has enormous appeal. It offers swift closure to lingering doubts of election fraud as well as a substantial savings in red tape and paperwork in the courts.

And it might be the one thing that actually freaks Nancy Grace out.

4. Fix the fucking media.

No other problem can even be addressed until we have a reasonably independent media. Take a sledgehammer to the conglomerates.

[Faux pas]

5. First fix the voting issue, all things after that should be easier to

fix. Good poll.

7. Fix the entire elections system!

Of course we need to fix the cheating first, but then we need to get the corporate money out of the system along with restoring the equal time requirement for the media.

8. Saving lives is more important in a long list of pressing issues

While fixing our election system is paramount, it takes a back seat to ending the carnage in Iraq and Afghanistan. We must withdraw all US troops at once!

9. If we had fixed the election system after 2000 we'd be OUT of Iraq by now

as occupiers and working WITH them to rebuild their country.

[Minnesota Libra]

10. Fix stolen elections and we - the voters - can do the rest nt

[Totally Committed]

11. We won't get out of Iraq...

unless the voting machines are fixed. Count on it.

I want this war to end, and no more to start, so fix the goddamed machines!

12. We've just got to fix the voting problems
