3. If as they say...
they would like to see the "Occupy" movement influence the Democratic Party the way the Tea Party influenced the GOP, it is a good move.

4. can reforming the system from the inside work ?
by all and any means give it a try,. however, the system has been warping any useful change, into more of the same, for well over a hundred years now.

I believe we will see a more profound change than just this,. after the many ideas and possible solutions rise and fall in popular support,. and in the end a much better society can be found.

5. The worst thing that could happen to the Occupy Movement
would be for it be endorsed, co-opted and usurped by the Democratic Party and "reform" organizations like Moveon.org. This is a part of a global peasant uprising that began when Mohammed Bouazizi self-immolated in Tunisia, and the goal should be a global people's revolution that usurps the power of national governments. Wallstreet is the head of the snake.

A constitutional amendment on corporate personhood is a battle, but the war can proceed with or without it.

6. The war can but it would be a victory.
Corporate usurpation of Constitutional rights and human legal rights could be put to an end.

7. They'd still find ways to buy the elections and the elected
But a change to the constitution would be a nice skirmish to win, and it would be one more non-violent weapon.
