No. Let some of these other groups stand up in the spotlight. Remember........there have been a few times over the course of this country that a majority party has ended up becoming a minority party. Ever heard of the Whigs? As this country grows, our political system must grow and change with it.
Personally? I'd like to see a field of 10 candidates, with the winner being President and the runner up gets Vice President, no 2 party elections, let 'em all run.
Pale Rider......you saying that you're now going Independent is probably the smartest thing I've heard you say on this board EVER. Kudos, you may be growing a brain.
