    Getting the Democratic majority in the Supreme Court.

    Using that majority to overturn Citizens United.

    Passing health care reform that does not give the biggest flaw in the system more power.

    This. Only this will break the hold of the richest millionaires and the billionaires
    on the national agenda and the near ownership of our politicians.

    Obama and the Dems should announce that they will start the move to overturn Citizen's United through a political movement. They should not just rely on trying to convince 5 old cranks on the S.Ct.

    Let the GOP, conservatives and libertarians fight openly for their baby Citizens United. Like naked obvious voter suppression in FL it won't work for them.

    Infrastructure ( and I mean repairing and maintaining what we have, not high speed rail junk), immigration, and entitlement reform.

    Decriminalization of all drugs and entitlement reform.

    The police state and the welfare state are twin scourges on our country. No other country imprisons more of their people, and I believe the waste of talent and human ambition by the welfare state is even more criminal.

    1. Remove taxes and fees on small businesses to vastly lower the entry barrier to entrepreneurship.
    2. Make people work for welfare whenever possible. Got too many kids? That's your own damn fault, go work in a daycare or something.

    Btw, if we stop giving stuff out for free to people who don't deserve it, the illegal immigration problem will go away. We'd only get people here who would fit in with a working culture.
