Sort of sad, I won't live to see a viable right-leaning third party

[Billiejeens]

There is no viable third party of any kind.

Its a binary system.

 

[Votto]

Why?

Because I doubt any adult is alive now that would be able to represent it and the Rs would either kill or co-opt it with a quickness.....Sort of how the Tea Party was co-opted.

Ross Perot was the closest thing to a third party happening. There he was, up against Bush Sr. and Clinton, and in the lead.

But then...................................................he drops out.

WTH?????????????????????????

Later, after his support had mostly left him, he gets back in the race, but it was much too late.

That told me right then and there that the ONLY reason he was there running was not to win, rather, it was to get Clinton elected instead.

Dirty politics.

Its a binary system.

I actually wish it weren’t but that is the reality.

The fact is that there is no chance of uniting our country. We have two political parties at war.

As it should be. Why mess with perfection?
