A very well written constitution should be able to keep subsections of parties from illegitimate power,
The wording however..
Very interesting thoughts you guys have

oooh!

i must disagree on the royals part.
I do support the idea of 'non' political diplomats that work for nothing but the best of relations with other entities.
Power should be earned, not inherited

One of many downsides with modern democracy..
Things work so smoth for the common man that he starts taking the system, its services and its benefits for granted.

Voter turnout sure is an important issue in many parts of the western world today

Do you know if it works?

Sweden had a turn out of 85.8% last election

No voter registration required in the manner it is in the US,
Citizenship and ID is all that is needed

When you register, is that with a governmental entity or with a party?

I have never really understood the part of having to register with a party to vote...
Only thing you should need is citizenship and proof of that!

Interesting system...
In Sweden the parties get to chose their own candidates and only party members are allowed to take part in the ranking of candidates to the different government bodies

Representative democracy has its perks...

yeah anyone can run here too, as independent candidates. Anyone is also free to start new parties

Well the way your system is set up makes it very hard for smaller parties to stand a chance, right?
In Sweden it is enough with 4% of the total votes in order to gain access to the parliament, for anny party

We currently have 8 parties in the national parliament, two coalition blocks and one 'out cast' party (12.9%)

art. 13 and 11 have not yet been voted on in the EU parliament, i think?

I agreem the US sure does need some other options..
Having some to choose inbetween helps with solving both democratic issues and bi-partisan issues

About article 13 and 11, you're right, it was shut down!

Lucky me 😛

Yeah... The EU is doing alot it shouldn't.
I get the narrowing down principle, it makes sense for a party to do so.
But as you point out, at least one more option would probably do alot of good.
The super delegate part though, very strange!

Man, if it had to be between two parties the corruption potential would be hughe

ofc they have. There should be no acctual delegates, only the result of the voting

i heard about that

very sad

It may very well be an insuranse thing, but also a weak point

Very complicated system for someone not as read in to it as me 😛

Probably more than me anyhow!

oh boy, here comes the facts!

jeez

Is it really illegal??

Sounds like there is no law or chapter touching on the subject?

if there is no writing forbiding it is it not then legal?

Man that is an interesting subject, would be nice to have a lawyer pitch in

^^

I bet there is a great and way too long ytube video on this

Haha what other state.. Alaska?!

"We want to go back to russia!"

And the military strategic interests..

No great deed goes un-punished..

Hawaii has an indigenous population, right?

I have a feeling this "invasion" also created a massive lift in standard of living, but also a loss of sovereignty

oh boy.. one of few topics i try not to touch 😛

hard core!

Do they have access to education?

I personally think that if the have access to education they also have the choice to persue better and other lives

therefor you have no obligation to aid them specifically before other groups/individuals

Noticed when i was vissiting the US, almost only natives employed at the casinos outside of vegas

Can't know everything..
Iäve heard about those weird casino laws before

i guess it has its reasons but i'm no fan of group specific laws

Integration is the best way of handling marginalized groups, def. agree on that!

wonder if the voters would support that

could be a party splitting issue?

My thought exactrly

hard topic

many interests at play and many actors to adhere to

oh boy

that is one infected topic

Very true!
Jeez, that bad?

The very least you can do when there is an issue is talk about it...
But people get upsett, offended etc..

Land on mars is the best idea this far!

Better hurry before Musk claims all of it

Haha that would be quite the project

Damn right!

The conditions in the reservations is their own responsibility?
Or does state/fed.gov have some judicial resposibility?

just gets more complicated the more i get to know 😛

i am sure there would be many benefits to either option, once implemented that is..

Alwas interesting to discuss with the acctual parties..

If only more politicians thought like that

Running for..?

Sounds like a plan!
Democrats?

Sound interesting, best of luck!

A sound task

I think many along with you share that feeling

after all the silent majority often does not act unless forced to, by either a good leader or by great change of circumstances.
Gotta keep a straigh ass 😉

So what do you currently do?

Small business can always be the next great growth 😉

Time for a carreer change?

the 'so-called' worker class here often makes more than basic white collar does

ah.. i see

That makes sense

with size comes security and stability..

Could attract alot of people, those tired of "professional" politicians

Probably impossible!

Pensions and a stable carreer is not something that will be let go easily

Business, money and political influence...
Great combo!!

Problem is that without fame, fortune or previous influence/power it is close to imposible for new candidates to succeed

how long are they?

Six year terms??

i had no idea

makes no sense

In sweden the general elections are held every 4th year...
4 year terms, works quite ok

we have no term limits and no president. The natinal parliament elects the primeminister after a general election is held

yes

however we are also a monarchy

but in difference to the UK the swedish monarch holds no power

Yes

Alot of taxmoney for some cermonies and representation though

no

the Monarch must not interfere with the political system
