I like the town hall idea. That should be a requirement, along with about an hour per week on the radio to take calls from constituents.

agree. I would love to hear what the elected would have to say if they had to field calls for an hour a week from the public. we would definitly see some headsplode. maybe a meltdown or two. and a lot less people getting re-elected. They would need to make a new cable channel. C-Span V or something. are there enough hours in the week?
