You seem like a smart guy. I'm curious as to why you would let yourself get caught up in the Partisan Hackery that does nothing but divide the people of your great nation.
No matter who you vote for the government always get in.
I want to throw all the bums out and implement term limits. It's obvious we are not qualified to throw lairs and thieves and incompetent politicians out of office.
When I discuss politics, it's purely from a theoretical or platform policy position. I realize once they get to DC, there's much less difference between the parties. It's almost like accepting the lesser of two evils.
Obviously, I'd rather have an incompetent Republican in DC over an incompetent Democrat. I honestly believe Obama is an out of touch looney toon.
Even when you choose the lesser of two evils you're still willing to vote for evil...
What's preventing a 3rd party from running..beyond start up money.
it's just hard to break the ice
the lack of money, coverage & endorsements makes it almost impossible to get started. If elected, such leader would still need to form some sort of coalition to be able to get policy passed.
I don't know what the answer is. I fear it's going to take the worse to make it better. That is that things have to get so bad that the people are just not going to take it anymore and demand change. Until then, it's status quo.
They demanded change last election and didn't get it. They got a guy who is willing to spend huge deficits, continue the wars not much different from the last guy except he's not cutting taxes and spending more, he'll likely raise taxes to spend more.
But Carter Begat Reagan, Obama Begat...
