Democracy, the system of systems?

[Isard]

Yes, I know about the communist party. They gave me a shirt. I like my redshirt.

Anyways. When was the last time we had an independent party in office? Quite awhile back, damn, maybe even before the second world war. At this point, you still get two choices, you've got the Tea party (That's their name now, but the extreme right wing has always been there) and Socialist democrats. The way its looking now, we're going to get to pick between Palin, and Obama in 2012 (God help us all). Can you honestly tell me that you think any other party really stands a chance against the political juggernaughts?

With Fox throwing their communist charges around, MSNBC doing their, thing. Their pro Obama, thing... Even I don't know what they're talking about half the time, Hardline partiers are going to vote for their party, because they can. People don't like to sit in the middle now, because here in the middle, we get called Commies by the right, Fascist by the left, and morons by the rest of the people who've just given up on politics.

Tbph, I think there is only one man, who could stand a chance at winning independently. Jon Stewart. But he's smart enough to realize, that everybody hates the president. Everybody. Because they are going to piss people off no matter what they do, so come election time, their own party will dump them, saying that they "strayed from the ideals of the party". We all know its because they actually did something (or nothing in our current glorious leaders case). But we need to bitch about it otherwise we might not win the next election.

Want to make democracy work? Get rid of this election system. Break up these political power bloc's that can spread over generations. (I'm damn lucky my grandmother didn't get into politics at an early age, or my mother and myself would probably be "tinfoil hat" conservatives.) So much party loyalty gets transferred like that...
