Re: California Politics

I thought the point was that mainstream media moguls have a conflict of interest in reporting news and manipulating public opinion to suit their private profit motive.

Consider that my capitalism friendly version would automatically qualify industry moguls like Mr. Gates and Mr. Grasso for elected office, if they choose to run for public office.

Nothing I am advocating for should be construed that any citizen of the Union should be denied or disparaged in their petitions for redress of grievances.

Running for public office has always had criteria for eligibility. Why should the populace of the sovereign state of California be required to endure the mistakes of the past, when market friendly public policy could ameliorate the standard of living of the populace of the US.

Are you also implying that our representatives to government have no power to legislate and enact laws and regulations not specifically enumerated in the Constitution?
