No, You don't get it! Got it?

Recently, the Dean campaign has been taking on a lot of heat, from all angles within the establishment. He is taking heat from Bush, he is taking heat from fellow Democrats, and he is taking heat from the corporate interests. It's heating up around here because the slow behemoth that is your government and the shadowy interests behind those in power have finally come to the realization that Howard Dean is the greatest threat they have ever faced.

The reason he has become such a great threat is not because of one man, or one set of positions, but rather because through Howard Dean's campaign speaks the voice of the people. He represents the democracy as it was meant to be before the establishment perverted it with the ways and means to control it outside the auspices of the people which it is meant to serve.

Since the beginning, the establishment has been acting to consolidate its power. The electoral college is certainly the most relevant example of this. Rather than trust the will of the people, the founding fathers (read: Establishment) decided that they needed a safeguard to make sure that they could override the will of the people in certain cases. In 2000, this came to pass.

Then, the people did not have a conduit through which they could constructively channel their disatisfaction. And this was, again, the way the establishment wanted it. But finally, technology is catching up to the will of the people. Howard Dean energized the country into action through the actions of individuals like you and me, starting a decentralization revolution in the process.

The establishment fears him. Because he speaks with your voice, and mine. We will take our country back, one blog entry, one meetup, one caucus, one primary at a time.
