I'm not talking about parties, and I don't mean I'd prefer to
keep the tyranny we have now.
Yes, both of those parties are evil.
What I mean by "keep what we have that I can work with" is in terms of our present legal framework and the justifications for armed revolution to "abolish their form of government and replace it with one more conducive to securing their liberty."
I'm not about to TRADE our present mess for Chinese communism.
I'd rather just replace what we have now with either true constitutional government, or go back to the Articles of Confederation, or something else along those lines.
As for the Speaker, yes, the power that office holds is improper, which is why I advocate ratifying a proper Article the First, and then returning the power of the House to the membership and out of the hands of the leadership as it used to be prior to the 1870s.
