AN OPEN LETTER
To: President-Elect Joseph Biden November 8, 2020
I share your desire to stop the demonization of our fellow citizens. But political realities of party extremist will prevent opponents from engaging and the national committee of both Republicans and Democrats will not support any effort because their constituents may perceive them as weak.
Eventually Republican efforts to frustrate your presidency will cause you to diminish your vision. Do not waste time – there is a lot to do – and little time.
Go to WE THE PEOPLE for support to get things done!
I offer the following road map to fairness in political engagement for your consideration:
1. Actively lead efforts for state-level legislation to award Electoral College votes in proportion to the votes by the State’s citizens. [Stops winner take all, all votes count.]
2. Actively lead efforts for state-level legislation that requires only those eligible to vote in an election as being qualified to donate to a candidate. [Stops buying of local representatives by corporations, outside groups and special interest. Return the representative to their constituents.]
3. Inform Congress that R and D representatives and their House and Senate leadership must seek legislation with broad support of 2/3 of their membership or face a presidential veto. [Stops winner take all control of Congress. Dilute the power of the extremes.]
4. Actively lead efforts to have Congress adopt new rules including 2/3 approval for legislation, calendar management by the representatives (not party leadership) and require 2/3 approval to change the rules once adopted. [Decentralize power in Congress away from party leadership.]
5. Actively lead efforts to have the Supreme Court’s rules changes to have the most senior Associate Justice of the Supreme Court function as a non-voting member, except during the absence of another Justice, and have the Court’s decision require 2/3 vote. [Rebalance judicial philosophy within the Supreme Court created by a lack of fairness by partisans.]
6. Reduce corporate taxes, incentives, and subsidies to zero over 5 years. Eliminate tax code appropriately and reduce the size the Internal Revenue Service and their budget accordingly. Raise taxes on those persons with taxable earning over $400,000. [It is not about getting government out of corporations; it is about getting corporations out of government. Corporations contribute about 11 percent of all income taxes; 89 percent of income taxes are paid by individuals. He who benefits from the country’s investments in its society should provide a dividend to its investor, the people’s Federal Government.]
7. Actively lead efforts for both State and Federal legislation that has lying when addressing constituents or the public by an elected official or a person seeking public office to be a criminal offence. [Respect the People.]
8. Actively lead efforts to make known to the public the role of clergy (religious leadership) in giving latent permission [failure to disapprove] for systemic racial bias in our society. [Expose the racist practices of clergy and help nonracist clergy survive the backlash from renouncing racist practices.]
9. Declare war on the COVID pandemic. Interdict the virus, clear the population and hold territory and then build it linking cleared populations. Fight the war at a community or subdivision level. Use a seven-day sliding window of positivity ratings to determine the level of infections. Provide guidance to businesses and citizens on risks as related to the positivity ratings. Allow people, businesses and organizations to make decisions within the recommendations of the guidance. Until such time the positivity ratings reflect the substantial reduction of the threat, facemask and social distancing should be mandatory. [Individual rights stop where the duty to others begin. Refer to Matthews 7:12.]
Respectfully,
Louis Vanacore
OUR national politics is divisive. OUR Congress is dysfunctional. Partisanship is an all-or-nothing battle. Major political parties divide our peoples and eat their own when they show independence. Political results now justify sacrificing Our Constitution’s republic-like-processes.
Forces external of our Representatives have managed to corrupt our Founder’s vision for the Republic. These partisan forces corrupt the Executive Branch role, make mini-monarchs of congressional leadership, and allow National Political Party Leadership Committees to control our Representaives.
Together, WE THE PEOPLE will wrestle the levers of power away from these partisan forces and return it to THE PEOPLE and HEAL OUR DIVISIONS.
1. Get outsiders out of local elections. Only persons eligible to vote in an election should be allowed to contribute to or expend for a candidate. Minimize "special interest" and corporate influence.
2. Give bipartisan congresspersons a voice. All legislation passed by Congress by less than 2/3 consensus, as President, I will veto. Forcing negotiation, even if it results in a narrower agreement.
3. Give representatives the ability to solve problems. All of Congresses’ work is important. Archaic rules control representatives and hinder progress. House and Senate Rules need be adopted by 2/3 vote of congresspersons
4. Be a non-partisan "Honest Broker" for all Americans.
More will need to be done to eliminate vestiges of party-cronyism and its antiquated rules that prevent OUR REPRESENTATIVE’S unfettered lawmaking within our legislative branches. This will require ongoing local efforts to elect OUR REPRESENTATIVES who will take back power they have surrendered to House and Senate leadership. Slowly OUR REPUBLIC will return.
OUR REPRESENTATIVES will act in the best interest of all their constituents when unrestrained by national-level political party committee coercion. WE THE PEOPLE must break the restraints imposed by national party leadership.
1. BE NONPARTISAN "HONEST BROKER". Nominations for governmental positions will be nonpartisan.
2. END THE “SPOILS” SYSTEM. I trust government employees will assure partisan executive branch personnel will change or leave.
3. EXECUTE THE LAWS AND BUDGETS ESTABLISHED BY CONGRESS. Hold Congress accountable to solve problems and not just pass our problems to future Congresses and generations.
4. ACCOMPLISH FOREIGN POLICY WITH ADVICE OF CONGRESSIONAL COMMITTEES. Create a foreign policy with broad Congressional and national support.
1. END MAJORITY CONTROL OF CONGRESS. All representatives are equal. Give the role of scheduling votes on legislation to the legislation’s sponsors.
2. WRITE LAWS FOR THE PEOPLE. Place committee staffers under the Executive Branch.
3. GOVERNMENT IN THE SUNSHINE. Require all lobbying activity to occur in open committee meeting.
4. SOLVE PROBLEMS. All of Congress’ work is important. Committee assignments and committee chairpersons shall be by a draw of lots.
OUR MOVEMENT SEEKS HEAL DIVISION BY CHALLENGING THE UNDUE INFLUENCE BY NATIONAL PARTY COMMITTEES ON OUR REPRESENTATIVES.
CREATE A POLITICAL ENVIRONMENT OF COOPERATION.
SUPPORT RESPECT AND FAIRNESS IN OUR NATIONS DISCOURSE THAT FROM MANY OPINIONS AND IDEAS BECOME - - - ONE.
Your donation is an opportunity to be part of something bigger. Show your candidate that you have their back. Give today!
