195. I, too, am the "looney left." I'll add:
1. repeal of NCLB, retirement of the "standards and accountability" movement, and putting an educator in as secretary of the department of education, to enact authentic, fully supported reforms that educators have been calling for for decades now. Universal public pre-school through trade school or college.

2. Election reform to include: 100% public financing of all elections; mandated equal, and equally neutral, media time; authentic debates that ensure equal time to all participants, and that require all participants to answer every question; and some form of IRV.

3. Re-regulation of everything that has been de-regulated over my life-time.

4. The end of privatization.

5. Stronger, and better enforced, anti-trust laws.

6. Some modern form of a fairness doctrine.
