But but but when something doesn't work if we just do more of what doesn't work then it will work.
Yes we do, see our elections. Voting for the duopoly has not worked yet we keep doing it time and time again.

While I am 100% against the "duopoly" I think you are naive in thinking the solution is to not vote for the duopoly. I'm not really sure what you even mean by that. Is Bernie our savior? Would a Libertarian candidate be our savior? I don't think so.Yes we do, see our elections. Voting for the duopoly has not worked yet we keep doing it time and time again.

And who should we vote for that will be different? Bernie? A Libertarian? I don't think so.It is the only solution. We have tried the "well maybe next time will be different" for far too long.

No Libertarian has ever convinced me they are worth voting for. Not one. And, I'm very very open to replacing both Democrats and Republicans. One of the Libertarian's biggest problems (beyond not having a decent candidate) is that they want to start at the top with the presidency. Assuming they were actually successful at landing the presidency, how on Earth would they do anything with Democrats and Republicans in Congress? What about the media who both swing left and swing right? They would all be attacking the Libertarian president as well.A Libertarian would be perfect. But really anyone so we can show the duopoly if they do not actually start to care about our desires for the country they are not guaranteed of staying in power.
As long as you all keep voting for the same old same old, they have no reason to change a thing.

I agree that doing the same thing again and again isn't working. However, it is naive to believe that voting for a Libertarian will bring change. As I said, Libertarians are going about it all completely backwards. They want to start with the presidency and work down. What do you honestly believe would happen if a Libertarian were elected president and had to deal with a Congress filled with nothing but Republicans and Democrats? When have Libertarians ever put up someone as a candidate who was actually qualified to be president? How many so called Libertarians have their been who were for term limits and then, when elected, ran for term after term after term?Well then just keep doing the same thing again and again hoping something will change. That is a great plan!

You claim to be "homeless" but you have the information and the resources to move across the country for a better life in a different state. Does any of this make sense?
Unfortunately, if you want to talk about reality, there aren't many solutions. I can think of several fantasies that would solve the problem but fantasies are just fantasies. Voting for "other" doesn't really change anything. However, if Libertarians were smart they would put their efforts into winning local and state elections, followed by winning US House and Senate seats. You don't get anywhere by winning the presidency when the House and Senate are filled with the same ole same ole.So, what is the solution?

It's been a lot of years and, rounded off, you have made close to zero progress. Any so called Libertarians that you have couldn't win on their own so they had to run as Republicans in order to win, and you can count all of those on one hand, even if you are a veteran and lost some fingers.We are working on it.
