Poll: if you had the power and authority, would you eliminate or limit the political party you hate?

[OldLady]

A one-party system = dictatorship, how ever "soft" a dictatorship it might seem.

It might be interesting to have a multi-party system like the UK, and also be able to vote out a prime minister more frequently.

But what we have is two dominant parties, each of which has candidates within it (*cough* Rand Paul) who really should go third party but don't have the conjones.

The friction between the supporters of each party is what helps undecideds decide.

That the Trumpsters are so blatantly comedic is double-plus-good.

The Trumpsters are not a joke; they need to be taken seriously.

I have to say I feel conflicted. If given the chance, I wouldn't eliminate the Republican Party but I sure as hell would want to. I know it would definitely serve the greater good but it would of course not be ethical to do so.

Not only would it not be ethical, it would be dangerous. The only check on either party's insane fringe elements is the other party.

Absolutely. And also absolutely, without Donald Trump...

See how the far left does not believe that Obama is not doing this now..

You folks seem to be doing just fine despite him. Try focusing on the question instead of turning every single ******* statement into an opportunity to say lefties are responsible for every evil and every problem in the world. It gets old and it doesn't add to your persuasiveness.

I know how you feel, several lefties on this board blame the Republicans for every evil since the beginning of time. Of course you seem to miss those posters.

I tried taking them seriously once but the uncontrollable urge to laugh proved to be an insurmountable impediment to success.

Just to be fair to 'em I'll give it another shot but this time I'll get really, really drunk first, that might do the trick.

I like to think I'm an equal opportunity scolder. Kosh just blurted it first.

Like keeping a straight face at a T-Ball game. Dig those nails into your hand and if that doesn't work, get out a kleenex and pretend to sneeze.

------------------------------ lots of decent dem will vote for TRUMP , probably Cruz rather than 'hilary' in my opinion . There are some decent dems still around .

 

[luosT_tcR]

I would eliminate both parties and do away with Voting all together, but before that can be accomplished, first we must get rid of the guns in America.

Bill....no offense....but the left always wants to silence the political opposition (see Stalin, Mao...etc...). The reason: The left's ideas suck.

Emotional arguments never can win in the market place of ideas...and the belief that stealing from one group and favoring another doesn't go down real well either....no matter how you try to sell it.

 

[Little-Acorn]

No, I would not eliminate either party.

But I would rigorously enforce the Constitution as written.

Including the 10th amendment, which forbids the Fed from exercising any powers not explicitly given to it by the Constitution. Bye-bye to 3/4 of liberal spending on non-listed programs.

And the so-called "Welfare Clause", which in actuality limits any Federal spending to only programs that benefit all Americans. Bye-bye to spending for Special Interest groups and "redistribution of wealth" programs.

And the 2nd amendment, which says that since freedom is necessary, no govt can have any say in who is or is not allowed to own and carry guns etc. Bye-bye to the Left's most cherished scaremongering, and hello to fear criminals will feel before the mug or rape someone, knowing that there's probably someone in the crowd who's armed and ready.

The Democrat party (and liberals in the Republican party) will thereby lose most of their reason for existing in their present form.

But if they want to go on existing anyway, that's OK with me. They'll just find no support and no legal basis for doing what they presently do.

So basically, your answer is yes. Poof! Dems are gone! Just go ahead and admit it.

I'm trying to figure out the name. Tom Riddle?

 

[PredFan]

Maybe.

And I say maybe because after I was finished jailing the majority of the Democrats in power, it may or may not be eliminated.
