"We the People..." 
WHAT IF voters got to VOTE on a revolution?


 


I'm Jeff Block, a 57 year old husband, father, and grandfather.
I've also created my own "American Dream" business, JustPaperRoses.com 

Serving YOU as President of the United States of America is not high on my list of things I want to do!

I'll only be YOUR President for 100 days.

Q:Why me?
A: Why not me?  I'm NOT an "activist" or a group joiner.  I rarely vote** and would label myself "apolitical".  My personal stance on most political issues is "leave us alone, and stop wasting our money".  My life and my business have never been better.  I'm not complaining nor protesting.  But many people today are calling for a revolution, a change from Washington D.C. politics of today.  I hear lots of "...take back America..." to which I ask, "what does that mean?"  I also hear lots of "...our voices must be heard...", to which I respond, "Washington D.C. is broken, NOT deaf!  Do you really think our President and Congress don't know that you are pissed?"

We ALL have bought into one form or another of "...if we only elect the "right" politicians, all will be well...".  Ask yourself, "are we really THAT bad at electing the "right" politicians"?  "We have the power of the vote!"  Okay, how's that been working for us lately?  If YOU believe that our system is fine, and either we just need to elect the "right" politicians, or that the incumbant politicians just need to be making different decisions, then there's no need for you to read more here.  But do ponder this quote from Benjamin Franklin ~ "Consider how hard it is to change yourself and you will realize how much harder it is to change others."

WHAT IF it is not the people that need changing?
WHAT IF it is the system that needs changing?
WHAT IF we take $$$out of politics? 

Read on thru the tabs above, $$$Out of Politics, Summary, Revolution, Discussion, and Mandates...

I do ask you to contribute your ideas.  What you will read here is just a beginning as we seek input from anybody who has an idea of what should be changed, whether YOU are an "ordinary" citizen/voter, or a Constitutional scholar.

65,000,000 votes (majority) will be needed to fulfill the Revolution of 2013. 

Count yourself "in" as a re-founder of the United States of America?

Oh, and TELL EVERYBODY YOU KNOW that:
WE HAVE PERMISSION TO CHANGE THE SYSTEM
        if you do not believe we have permission to change the system consider this from John Adams,
"Thoughts on Government" 1776:

"Government is instituted for the common good; for the protection, safety, prosperity, and happiness of the people; and not for the profit, honor, or private interest of any one man, family, or class of men; therefore, the people alone have an incontestible, unalienable, and indefeasible right to institute government; and to reform, alter, or totally change the same, when their protection, safety, prosperity, and happiness require it."

And this from Abe Lincoln from his 1st inaugural address:

"This country, with its institutions, belongs to the people who inhabit it.  Whenever they shall grow weary of the existing Government, they can exercise their constitutional right of amending it, or their revolutionary right to dismember or overthrow it."

- many edits since then, and many edits yet to come, hopefully with YOUR input!

**MANY citizens do not vote because they feel it really makes no difference who we elect, BECAUSE the system is broken.  In the 2008 Presidential election there were 100 million citizens of voting age who DID NOT VOTE - if you are one of this 100 million, then JeffBlock2012 just might be the revolution for you!!!
