9. An emergency is declared....
and every state, every precinct, starts voting using paper ballots, counted in the precinct, results posted at the precinct, in front of any citizens who want to observe.

The renewed interest and confidence in voting brings people to the polls who had long since given up hope.

Meanwhile, progressives are pooling their money. They cancel their regular newspaper subscriptions, stop watching the big TV news shows all over the country, and join into a united push. They establish one liberal network with TV and radio available to over 50% of the American people. Will Pitt, Tom Paine, Bev Harris, Amy Goodman, Michael Moore, Chuck Lewis, Jim Hightower, Molly Ivins and many others become as familiar to the American people as the scourges of the right-wing are now.

Miraculously, real issues that affect real people are addressed, rather than speculation on which candidate has had botox treatments. With real discussion of real stuff, DK surges.

Okay, it's a fairy tale right now. Most people are still living in delusional worlds and aren't noticing their country sliding down the drain, or aren't noticing enough to do anything about it.

Or, no one has told them what to do.

So.......tell some one what to do.
