As a business leader with a track record of success, Cox stood against the political establishment to run for Governor of California. What he learned is that the system—consisting of both parties, as well as the media/big business axis that props up cronies of the political establishment—is fully rigged to prevent independent-minded candidates from gaining traction. Hear the People is the organization he’s launched to promote real electoral reform, that will empower regular people to have unprecedented influence on, and access to, the electoral process—all while working within the existing framework of the U.S. Constitution. There is general agreement among voters that our electoral system suffers from the Four Plagues: special interest influence; big media control; negative campaigning; and extreme partisan voices. The huge media driven campaigns required by today’s increasingly large population districts are the primary reason for the Four Plagues. Cox proposes a bold, far reaching, effective reform that would make all campaigns for the U.S. House of Representatives personal, not driven by media or money. This reform can be legally implemented and will empower the people, making the House of Representatives truly the People’s House as our Founders intended. As we celebrate the 250th birthday of America, a rebirth of our democracy is just what we need. This book is Cox’s manifesto for reform. Equal parts passion and remarkably practical, Hear the People will usher in a new phase of America’s political life, giving voice to the millions of citizens crying out for meaningful change.

Is it possible that: The earth will be devastated by objects from space prior to the second coming of Jesus Christ? There may be a considerable length of time, perhaps decades, between the first signs of the coming of the Lord and the actual descent? The four horsemen of the apocalypse have no relationship to the last days? Armageddon will be the greatest battle never fought? There may be more than one coming of Christ? Everyone will be left behind because there will be no pre-tribulation rapture? Weve already missed the Great Tribulation? This book explores these and other possibilities.
