why not?....the party people here cant be that much different than those not in this forum.....watching political shows i see much of their attitudes about 3rd parties on them....Do you really think this place is representative of the nation as a whole?
One more question: Do you really think "most" people frequent roller derby political forums? There's a wider world out there.why not?.........
do you really think that if most people didnt have this 2 party attitude bullshit that there would be more that 2 parties dominating every election?One more question: Do you really think "most" people frequent roller derby political forums? There's a wider world out there.
There will always be two parties. Names may change, but there will always be.do you really think that if most people didnt have this 2 party attitude bullshit that there would be more that 2 parties dominating every election?
Ditto , Turd Party Types and Lie- bertarians are misfits ...There will always be two parties. Names may change, but there will always be.
and as long as the attitude about how only 2 parties matter, no matter how bad the candidates are.....nothing will change....we will have 3rd rate people running the show....There will always be two parties. Names may change, but there will always be.
Doesn't mean only two parties "matter."and as long as the attitude about how only 2 parties matter, no matter how bad the candidates are.....nothing will change....we will have 3rd rate people running the show....
tell the party people that.....Doesn't mean only two parties "matter."
I disagree with 2 and 5 but I think some tweaks /restrictions to those would work.
- Short, strict congressional term limits.
- Publicly-funded elections.
- Ranked choice voting.
- Non-partisan primaries.
- Independent redistricting commissions.
Our Platform
The Forward Party supports ranked-choice voting, open primaries, and other reforms that will lay the foundation for a more representative multi-party democracy.www.forwardparty.com
Just Trump supporters and the members of Alt-Right Nation. The rest of us?, are desperately trying to move on.
Thereard plenty in the middle. Just no one listens to them. Two parties are not diverse enough represent every one's needs. We need more parties that all can effect change. The problem is how do we get there. Ya vote for some one not a dem or republican you are most the time throwing away your vote. How we get more parties involved I don't know but figure it out ya likely save America from the trash heap. Not likely we dominate for a thousand years like Rome did the way things are going.The parties are too far apart these days...there are nobody in the "middle".
Yep. And it had better happen soon.Thereard plenty in the middle. Just no one listens to them. Two parties are not diverse enough represent every one's needs.

We do not have a parliamentary system, we are not going to have more than two political parties. For all the problems, it's for the best.Thereard plenty in the middle. Just no one listens to them.

Well seems as though our two party system has problems of its own. The term civil war is brought up on a daily basis here. So not for the best.We do not have a parliamentary system, we are not going to have more than two political parties. For all the problems, it's for the best.
It seems simple to me that life is more complicated than either or. Neither party benefits me much.. For practical purposes Neither party votes for the interest of the common man once in office. They vote to benefit their largest campaign donors no matter what party they belong to.Yep. And it had better happen soon.
The amazing thing to me is how many people are perfectly happy with this binary, all-or-nothing environment. Wild swings back and forth. And we can't fix big problems any more.
I don't know how at least 80% of the country is not demanding something better. I don't get it.
Be careful what you wish for.Well seems as though our two party system has problems of its own. The term civil war is brought up on a daily basis here. So not for the best.
Well, that's a political/electoral system that motivates and rewards the very worst impulses of its participants.It seems simple to me that life is more complicated than either or. Neither party benefits me much.. For practical purposes Neither party votes for the interest of the common man once in office. They vote to benefit their largest campaign donors no matter what party they belong to.
