Check out the video here, then read the links below, then tell your friends. This is NOT Republican or Democrat or Libertarian or Green. It's Multi-Party. So, let's have a "Party."

According to Lessig: "We are just getting started. The seeds are being planted and we need your help to get this effort rolling. This is going to take a multi-partisan effort on behalf all of Americans, not just Democrats and Republicans. Its not going to rely on million-dollar ad campaigns or celebrity endorsements from Hollywood. It's going to rely on people like you and me in our own districts and communities willing to challenge our political leaders and offer them the opportunity to help create a better form of government."
