The standard model Lagrangian requires the values of the fermion masses, the Higgs boson mass, and three other experimentally well-measured quantities as input in order to become predictive. These are typically taken to be {alpha}, {ital G}{sub {mu}}, and {ital M}{sub {ital Z}}. Using the first of these, however, introduces a hadronic contribution that leads to a significant error. If a quantity could be found that was measured at high energy with sufficient precision then it could be used to replace {alpha} as input. The level of precision required for this to happen is given for a number of precisely measured observables. The {ital W} boson mass must be measured with an error of {plus_minus}13 MeV, {Gamma}{sub {ital Z}} to 0.7 MeV, and polarization asymmetry {ital A}{sub {ital L}{ital R}} to {plus_minus}0.002 that would seem to be the most promising candidate. The role of renormalized parameters in perturbative calculations is reviewed and the value for the electromagnetic coupling constant in the M{bar S} renormalization scheme that is consistent with all experimental data is obtained to be {alpha}{sub M}{bar S}{sup {minus}1}({ital M}{sub {ital Z}}{sup 2})=128.17.
