85. Manipulate the Sheeple?
No....We just want them to become informed and begin to think about things, not just take the word of the leaders and the media whores. We need the 'Disengaged' to become Engaged in democracy.

Simple things like energy use, nuclear weapons, and how America is perceived in the rest of the world, are issues which require a thougtfull people thinking things through to logical conclusions. It is a process, mind you, that is not taking place today. Too many of our fellow citizens are allowing special interests to make crucial, life draining decisions for them without the people's informed consent. We don't want to manipulate them, we just want democracy.
