A Fair Voting System For The United States

http://www.fairvote.org/reports/1993/amy.html

Extractions: The winner-take-all, single-member district election system has been on the wane worldwide because it often produces unfair and undemocratic results. Among other things, it routinely denies representation to large portions of the electorate, artificially restricts the party choices offered to voters and forms a barrier to the election of women and minorities to office. The source of these faults can be traced to a fundamental flaw in the single-member district system: it is designed to ensure representation only for the majority of voters in a particular geographic area. Only those who vote for the winning candidate in a district get representation in this system. Everyone else who may make up 49% of the electorate in the district are considered losers not meriting representation. All in the minority in a single-member district are thus effectively disenfranchised; their vote is worthless because it cannot help elect anyone to represent them. We are all familiar with this problem. If you are a Democrat in a Republican district, a minor party supporter in any district, an African-American in a white district or a white in a Hispanic district, then you can be shut out of electing a candidate of choice by our current election system and have no one to speak for you in the legislature. Under single-member district rules, you have the right to vote, but not the right to be represented through casting an effective vote. This electoral injustice is an inevitable part of our present system.

http://www.gustavus.edu/news/weekly/00-01/06/commentary/debate.html

Extractions: This election is pivotal for the stance of our country in the next four years. These next four years could fix our health care plan, resolve the Social Security problem and even help restore the integrity of our nation. The man to do this is George W. Bush. Bush's plan for our nation is one of courage, vision and determination. Based on these principles, Bush will lead us to a future where Americans are trusted by the government to make the decisions that are best for them. Bush on education: Bush's vision is to help reform our public schools by putting the control of the schools into the hands of the local leaders who see what the problems are and know how to fix them. States will be held accountable to achieve certain basic levels of reading and math. Bush will offer a fiscal incentive to states that keep up with the level of performance. Bush also wants to close the achievement gap by enhancing the Pell grants for low-income students with outstanding academic achievements as well as help increase the technology advancements in schools. Schools would also profit by Bush's Reading First program, which ensures that every disadvantaged child can read before reaching third grade.
