do you believe in the coming American revolution?(see description)

The Coming Peaceful American Revolution:
As the American citizenry becomes increasingly dissatisfied by the corrupt and mildly oppressive nature of it’s federal government’s functioning, a slow “rip-tide” of sort’s is finally beginning to form. Evidence demonstrates that the government is prepared to fight it’s own citizens in order to preserve the Union formed originally between only 13 of the current 50 states. How then is preserving the marriage of our states justified by beating some partners to keep them in line? Isn’t that domestic abuse, illegal, and therefore, the entire system needs to be rewritten; at the least?
In trying to revive the sense of compromise that left this country most completely as per “The Marihuana Tax Act of 1938”, especially in terms of corporate control of public well-being, it is necessary to bridge the gap between ,”violence to preserve” and “being armed to survive”, and preserving citizen equality, access to beneficial nutrition and water, a feeling of security, and the regional differences of our great nation.
Rather than the potential cut off supplies to siege the enemy into surrender approach, could we just put down our “arms”, act like f-ing adults, and preserve those utilities for everyone through renewable development? Then with everyone’s basic needs met in all scenarios, people might be less likely to feel they will need to arm themselves only to ensure their own access to resources when the inevitable time does come. While the founding fathers of this great nation had warned of regionalism, they also advocated against the formation of political parties. Why then would we avoid one to no end while committing the other every step of the way. Maybe we just have it backward.
In applying the previous paragraph’s idea let’s say a regional break down might be broken down into any number of combinations, but effort to preserve access to trade waterways, educational exposure, and security needs to be done.
Here is one potential breakdown.
In a conducting a thorough analysis of regionalism, this author considers the creation of overlap states within each region an ideal way to preserve a) fair trade
b)sea access
c) ease of access to future applicants for membership to the union.
Furthermore, the rotation of overlap territories, might be method to stimulate the weakness of those territory’s economy.

Another option besides regionalism, might be for the citizens of the United States to begin pushing for our federal government to declare title IV bankruptcy, become the United States of North America, have all of our military excess repossessed and then final be an adult as a nation.

Peaceful protest has somehow become a thing of the past, but the availability of cell-phone video recording has increased to an extent that only by citizens being responsible protesters and recording every incidence of abuse they have suffered can they ensure that they don’t get “accidentally” shot by the police and if they do that the party at fault will be held responsible. In this way the increasing number of protests need to be better recorded by those involved immediately backed-up(Usb maybe) and ensured survival of. Eventually, this violence might then be broadcast to true news organizations the BBC, pbs, and small university papers keeping it under the radar, for now; but not to those news stations that are owned by the “Subliminal Six” in America. This would need to be done either with an understanding that those corporations/news agencies need to keep it quiet until enough is gathered to fill suit against the federal government, according to law, or to first accumulate enough to bombard the media with it until revealing it was the local, federal, or state police officers that are the aggressors.
Finally, in closing the dismantling of a broken government in order to minimize waste, would allow us to reassemble it to be better than before.

Well, not to be dismissive but...no. No to it all.
Why?
Voter turnout for the last Presidential election was the lowest in 20 years. The 2014 midterm elections had the lowest voter turnout in 70 years.
Not sure that bodes well in terms of trends.
And as a quick side note, peaceful protest have hardly become a "thing of the past."
But good luck with keeping the media "quiet" about news. It's not like it's their job or anything.
Apathy and complacency still overrule engagement and action in the U.S. Clearly.

@Fernie: General polls are low but not among his supporters. It's still over 80 percent.

@Fernie: I wish I could agree with you but the numbers don't lie. If a "do over" election was held tomorrow I bet the turnout would be the same or even lower.
IMO the BEST platform for any kind of substantial change is to recognize that what's taking place right now isn't about Right vs Left. It's class warfare. Pure and simple. 1% of our citizens have roughly the same wealth as the other 99% combined and they're committed to keeping and growing that level of disparity.
But remember Occupy Wall St.? That was something that EVERY American who wasn't making high seven figures a year should have supported. But they didn't.
And as it stands right now most of the people who will get hit the hardest are the very people defending the GOP, this administration and the greed of the wealthiest who are making the rules to fit their goals. It's entirely nonsensical but it exists.
We don't live in a smart country. That's an unfortunate fact.

"Peaceful protest has somehow become a thing of the past"

Nearly every right you enjoy was won through violent protest. I don't know what kind of idyllic fantasy history you have, but back in the 'good old days' people threw bombs at cops during protests.
