Thank you so much for this brilliant book. I love the way you think.<br /><br />Subscribed to blog... as for the Tawana Brawley case, Poughkeepsie NY...I was a reporter in the state capitol of Albany and covered the story. That case was a symbol of abuse on so many levels, including the use and abuse of media. <br /><br />As for gerrymandering.... one of the primary reasons it exists and is so difficult to legislate away, relates to your thoughts on CHEATS.Ilene Marderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01591554260017634132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8587336.post-13328855952698851272009-01-01T14:22:00.000-08:002009-01-01T14:22:00.000-08:00Prop 11 is not that surprising given prior moves l...Prop 11 is not that surprising given prior moves like term limits. Recently the state even elected a Republican outsider to Governor! The level of disgust with our disfunctional government is reaching new highs every year.<BR/><BR/>I suspect that there is a strong popular sentiment against entrenched elites across the country as a whole. This might be a good time to try such a change. A lot of people will be feeling the need for change.sjmalarkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06502108938156452917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8587336.post-12999940167318936412008-12-31T19:39:00.000-08:002008-12-31T19:39:00.000-08:00California Proposition 11 only affected redistrict...California Proposition 11 only affected redistricting of State Assembly and State Senate seats. Reducing gerrymandering for House of Representatives districts will require another proposition.Montiaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02956899138222604787noreply@blogger.com
