The only way to find those type of leaders is to start looking and demanding the press let them be heard.
If we do not do it now, we may never have another chance.

Some of us are of the opinion that things need to get a lot worse before they will get any better. Yes, I said "need to." At this point, the current political power structure is so corrupt at its core, and so entrenched, that it will take very serious measures to truly fix it. Any changes the Dems and Neo-cons try to pass off as progressive will simply be smoke and mirrors to try to conceal the heart of the problem. Case in point: the war in Iraq, national healthcare, "The War on X" where X is any number of pointless distractions.
