Forget the idea of a popular vote for any elected office. It doesn't matter much, anyway. Rather...

Make an overriding, basic amendment, that the popular vote determines one thing... the execution of Government people who don't follow their Oath of Office. Base it on whichever activities the people decide they want to look at... or a whole bunch of activities at the same time if the people want.

Make the Secret Service the executioners. And if they don't do the job, the NSA does it and takes the SS out at the same time. And if the NSA doesn't, the CIA does the dirty work on them all. If the CIA fails, the FBI. If the FBI fails, the people.

Sounds a little like revolution, doesn't it?

As for Liberty Reserve, did they have a whole bunch of back-up websites in place, so that the next site could take over after Government shut the first one down? Did they have back-up people in place to take over? Seems like they didn't. Where's my $3 I had left in my account? The LR people seem to have proven untrustworthy with my money.
