Tired of Politics Party...

Surveys relating to the US Presedentiaal election seem to show that many people are tired of adversarial, argy-bargy, politics. More of the same is not what people want.

I mentioned a while ago the comcept of a new type of party: T.O.P. Party. This stands for 'Tired of Politics Party'.

Perhaps this could be the party for Internet Users who would combine their intelligence and voting power. There might be no candidates put forward but TOPP members would throw their votes for whichever party agreed to certain suggestions and initiatives.

I appreciate that this project has been on going for a while and many people have contributed - this is a fresh and timely initiative. I would like you to continue to send in suggestions as to how it may work, how it might exert a constructive influence, and how the idea may spread. TOPP does not have to be restricted to any one country but can exist in parallel in many countries.

There might be a place for TOPP to be in action leading up to the forthcoming election! 'Thinking and Education!'
