Perhaps somebody can start a 3rd party awareness campaign whose goal is to help fund 3rd parties and promote them. Its an idea i have been tossing around in my head. America has always been a two party system but we have had changes in parties before so it can happen again. My thoughts were maybe o a central webpage that would only discuss third parties and not even mention democrats or repubs. Not sure how well it would work. But even a vote any 3rd party campaign would be good. They can just run ads that attack dems and repubs and suggest vote any third party. |
I agree with this fully. If you want change, get involved in the political system and create change. Educate people on what you feel the issues are and how you believe they can or should be solved, but don't change what has worked for more than 200 years because of a situation that honestly has only started to happen within the past 10 -20 years.
As someone who has worked on a campaign before and understands the importance of it, get involved rather than bitching and moaning about it.
