We can turn our unwelcome email broadcasting into a vibrant conversation, and base an American reanaissance on that conversation.
We need to talk about money but the citizens want to talk about issues, passionately. Just like us. That's why talk radio is ascendant. We're involved in this campaign because we want to be close to the process and, frankly, the power. Every one of our supporters has the same dream.
Let's invite them to the party. Announce opensourcepolicy.org.
Opensourcepolicy.org is recruiting the members of the next administration. Many members of that administration will be in Washington but most will telecommute from their hometowns, the way America was "meant" to work. If you care about what the government does, OSP invites you to design the next government. Those who do the most designing will be the most likely to be part of the next administration.
If the members of OSP support a particular design feature, they can vote on it, so the best ideas will become visible at the highest levels. People who feel qualified in an area can declare their competence and ask others to support them for consideration as members of the next administration. Here's the process.
Using the Dean campaign's customized H20 policy discussion forum, experts will begin a discussion on one policy each week.
Simultaneously, every citizen will be invited to disuss and promote their values at OSP:

Those who respond will receive official materials describing how serious the program is and instructions on how to engage others in this important program, and how to improve their visibility at the highest levels of the next administration.
Naturally, they will also be taught how to help install their administration sooner rather than later.
