Politicians Must Stand Up For What They Believe In

With two parties dominating congress and controlling votes, some brave congressmen must step up and break away from this system.  The American people don't always want what either of the two parties want, and many of us are tired of the bickering and inaction in our legislature.  People want to be able to live their lives with relative economic security and freedom.  The actions, or lack of actions, on the part of our congressional "leaders" is staggering.  In order to stop the politicking of every single bill, individual congressmen must take the lead and make a stand for their district and the people of this nation.  They should not always vote what their party leaders say they should vote.  They should be beholden to no one except for the people, not their political leaders.
