I've been trying to figure out how all this talk of politics started in the first place here on RangerNet. So I went though all my e-mails and THIS ONE BELOW is the earliest e-mail I have that starts disscussing politics, I could be wrong though.

Cool.. *I'm saying that the People's voice.. is being "stolen" by politics of polling and sound bite propaganda.. Our nation is NOT the represenitive democrocy we "think" it is.. Whitness: Total Vote count in last presidentual "selection" *Further- Was that the "hand of God" or the hand of man? Truth be told it was the desire of the un-seen power elete. Sen McCain himself found that out in privet meetings following the So.Carolina mudbash primary. *It is now impossible.. "for any boy or girl to grow up to become President" Special Intrest's do not trust the people to govern themselves, and so, they apply their efforts to influence, direct and fund prescribed outcomes. *This relates to Royal Rangers.. When we are so sure that the boys cannot lead the meeting or plan the outing. We then elect boys who we can "control-direct and use for OUR agendas" *What keeps a democratic elected leader from "going over the edge?" In the troop we hold reviews, Patrol planning councils where as the agenda is laid out.. Our voices of experiance,ethic and hopefully wisdom<G> mix with the energy of the boys in Leadership. Leadership is not a secret society controling the message. Leadership implys freedom.. Freedom requires respect and limits on our actions. *There are many things politicaly expedient that we will not do.. because we are Americans- Right? -=A=- > > If the reform law Sen.
