"I want an avowed atheist in the White House. When time comes to push that button, I want whoever’s making the decision to understand that once it’s pushed, it’s over. Finito. They’re not gonna have lunch with Jesus. Won’t be deflowering 72 virgins on the great shag carpet of eternity, or reincarnated as a cow. I want someone making that decision who believes life on this Earth isn’t just a dress rehearsal for something better — but the only shot we get."

"Make no mistake: we’re no democracy. We’re an oligarchy. Social communication technology will change this in the next 150 years… everyone will truly have access and a vote. I firmly believe that. Until then, we elect flawed humans that are corruptible to manage for the many. It doesn’t work. Not at all."

"In communism, and even capitalism, and most isms……. corporate efficiency will often trump individual convenience - until they figure out how to charge a premium for the convenience. I am starting to think more and more that a pure democracy would be the majority run rampant, and we need to be able to focus legislation in a more humanistic manner…. to control the majority and represent human rights."
