If we came up with a name, like "COMMON SENSE AND PURPOSE" (or far better), which adopted the Alaska dividend as proof of government's responsibility to use the greatest economy in history to make it the most sensible economy too.

We might represent a threat from the left to Obama -- to seek common sense in maintaining full employment always (like you have to eat every day.)

We might turn the money-jobs system into a factory not a casino, before we lose the next election to the conservatives on our right.

I hate third parties. But I also hate the idea that we may not get Obama to see the merits of full financing -- with everybody working and so-called excess capacity put to work to build homes for billions, food supply chains for these billions, and schools and hospitals, too.

If we end up with the conservatives fighting "socialism" where there is currently only Obama-nomics and WINNING TOO, you and I will be beside ourselves. We'll go nuts.

Alaska has Americanized the common sense of recognizing there is a "COMMONS". The conservatives can't fight it!

Richard Cook has studied all the angles we have studied. He comes down on the side of a large as possible national dividend.

He wants to use it to create a banking commons.

He, and Ellen, prove to me that this movement may have to be as wide and accommodating as any national political party.

We may have to give up pet schemes, like my Economic Security Agency, and the popular "kill the Fed idea", and go for a general third party -- with room for all who want to pull the democrats over to full employment, human rights, "money enough to go around", and economic democracy, etc.

In the end we would support a commons-oriented Obama -- and not run any other candidates but for president.
