A great leader takes people where they don't necessarily want to go but ought to be." ---R. S. Carter A different Carter (Jimmy, to be specific...) tried this. He wound up gutting the intelligence community, tied our hands in covert operations, ran the inflation rate into double digits, left us humilated in world opinion for 444 days and got several of my friends killed. When I vote for someone, I expect he will represent the majority...Not use his election as a license to do what HE wants to do despite guidance from hbis constituents to the contrary. Steve, K4YZ Steve, Thanks for speaking up for the responsibilities of elected representatives to BE representative of their constituents rather than using their position as a platform for their personal views. I particularly appreciate you comment in light of the fact that I know you don't agree with me (or NCI) on some of the issues. If that is how it is, The officials should be hired as employees, and vetted for compliance and obedience. Why elect anyone. Simply poll the constituants, and do exactly what the majority asks. - Mike KB3EIA - |

I see your point, Mike, however in 85% of the cases the elected representitives are supposed to be doing JUST that..."representing". Yes, I know there are those times when they must act without taking the time to get the "pulse" of what thier constituents want...Like responding to an attack. In those cases I EXPECT them to not wait around. Otherwise, there's very little reason for them to NOT be able to take SOME time to work with the constituency. 73 Steve, K4YZ |
