RB, plus running on the single issue of RB, promising a Citizens Advisory Board, based on &#x201D;Organized Communications&#x201D; (OC) randomly assigned discussion groups electing reps (by RB) to higher &#x26;amp; higher random levels, til one small group remains most in the middle, will give us instant practicable fulfilled Democracy everywhere, &#x26;amp; could even make electronic voting unnecessary.&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;

RB will allow truly anything from (win-win) Sharing The Work, the workweek attached to the unemployment rate (to end both foot-dragging &#x26;amp; too big to fail &#x26;amp; maximize employment, motivation &#x26;amp; prosperity) (through Women&#x2019;s Equal Representation, one of each districts&#x2019; two reps a woman) all the way to replacing public education with having to prove you can read to vote (now that learning is universally valued &#x26;amp; there&#x2019;s mobile, broadband, 24/7, infinitely reiterative teaching machines). RB also won in Benton County Oregon at the same time.&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;
