Someone suggested that each "no" in:

/usr/local/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.consolekit.policy

be replaced with "yes".  Oddly enough, it worked, but when I run:

ck-list-sessions

I still get:

active = FALSE
is-local = TRUE

Go figure.

Thank you to all those who responded for your advice.
