I agree. The problem is not Muslims as a whole either.

One of the biggest problems I see with our current situation is our system has become dysfunctional. Gov is bought and paid for and not beholden to the majority of Americans but rather to money power alone.

How would I fix it? End the idea that corporations have the same rights as living citizens for one. I would also fix our broken election system by making instant run off voting be used in all elections at every level. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instant-runoff_voting We need to fix our country so we are not ruled by a two party duopoly. This would give other parties just as much power as the Demicraps and the Repugnacans. I want the Libertarians and the Greens to have just as much of a shot. Let people have the ability to vote their conscience and then as a secondary choice vote for either the "Giant Douche or the Turd Sandwich" (Dem/GOP).
