Surely you can choose between two very different plans for our future. Big Federal Government Spending on stimuli, and social programs VS Smaller Federal government and more emphasis on State government. Social issues have no business in this year's election. Look at your congressional races as well...they are probably even more important than who is president.... |
This attitude is the absolutely only reason why it's a race between two men. Obviously, this election isn't going to see a third runner winning. But it's going to see record non-DEM/GOP voter turnout, and that's a statement that must be made. The greater the number of people that realize it's a statement that needs to be made, the greater its potential in the future. This time, the third party candidate might see 15%. Next time, 25%. And after that, who knows? Make significant ground and more people see the potential and are swayed. And the DEM/GOP parties need to be stopped. They've been irrelevant to America for decades now, and it's time we move on. Only way that possibly can happen is if we, the voters, resolve to make it happen.
The problem is that so many people are too short-sighted to realize that sometimes one election must be sacrificed to see the long-term benefit. All you have to do is be able to accept that, and I am positive it will make a change.
