At the Independence Day Parade in Boise I noticed some interesting entries that even 2 years ago may have been considered a bit on the "fringe." Among those were the 9-12 project, The Idaho Tea Party, and George Dashiell.
Dashiell was wearing an Revolutionary era tricorn hat and was riding a bicycle along the side of the parade. As he rode by he stopped and gave out keys to the Governor's Office. He is runnig for Governor of Idaho in 2010. It was very interesting to hear him explain his position on "Real Democracy." If Dashiel wins he intends to be and inanimate governor; leaving all, and I mean all, decisions up to We the People of Idaho.
I find his ideas exciting and and a little intimidating. Think about it, what would it be like if we could make every choice in our state government. No longer would decisions be relegated to anyone. One of my first thought is now everyone has a responsibility to be informed and make wise choices. You can't just sit back and watch others take charge. Those who vote and those who abstain are all making a choice.
Deep thoughts.
Heady thoughts.
