I've looked through the forum, found nothing, I've watched media outlets attempt to undermine the movement for our lack of cohesive demands. Putting aside all other issues and focusing only on our broken federal system, a group of anonymous authors have compiled a new common sense. Based on the document that sparked our path towards Independence from the British, the new common sense guides us towards Interdependence. By demanding government transparency, a shift of power back to the states, and ousting corporate influence we can take back out government and reinstate true Liberty. We need to take the system our founding fathers have made and modernize it, clarify it, and abide by it. No more vague clauses in the Constitution that can be abused on a federal level. Please I urge you to read the new common sense, distribute it, support it, and occupy with this in your hand. Here is the link to the document: http://pastebin.com/gm2UV08D

Thanks for posting this, I have been promoting and following this document for over 2 weeks and it is now all over the internet. Many inside and outside of the Occupy movement are supporting this amazing document. Declarations like this can be very powerful when presented to those in power and with enough people behind them, something like this could force change. Mainstream media has seen this and is choosing to ignore it. We must keep distributing it until it can no longer be ignored. OWS is really starting to wrap their heads around this as are many others. The 1% and by that I don't mean the wealthy, I mean the corrupt, are on to this too, They may be ignoring it now, but not for long as this gets too BIG to fail. For those that would rather listen to it : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQMtM0LuK_4

I can't believe how little attention this is getting. I agree with you that this is huge.

Good work on this blog, we need to protest the supreme court while we still can. From 1937 to 1995, the Supremes didn't strike down a single federal law as unconstitutional. Not one in nearly 60 years. We need them to start now....
