Another thing i would like to see is more candidates telling me why i should vote for them rather than why i should not vote for their opposition.

Change in this as in most aspects of life is painful. I think we got where we are because listening to overly packaged messages is easier than sorting through meaningful dialogue. As citizens, we are going to have to be willing to do our homework and then be extremely vocal about our insistence on being properly informed, both from the candidates and the media. I admit I'm a little pessimistic that the majority of citizens will be inspired to get that involved. I guess a practical question becomes; how many (what percentage of voters) have to raise a stink before the process begins to shift toward a more open and substantive level of communication from congress?
