This is a gifted issues discussion forum. Government of the people, by the people, for the people IS, indeed, everybody's issue. So I guess we can discuss your idea as well. I just have one favor to ask, sir. While most everybody here is, by definition -Gifted (some aren't, only related by marriage , now raising kids ), if you read the forum often you'll notice a lot of members are 2e, gifted plus learning disabled. This includes dyslexia, ADD, plus OAAD, BIS.. If you'll stop to notice it will appear that many of the posts here appear polished, condensed, and to the point. You may think that's because gifted people naturally are quite eloquent, but really, we edit for clarity before posting. Well, at least I do. Shush y'all, yep that great grammar of mine actually is often my polished second draft.
