Start a new party... it's been proven time and time again that there is a huge underrepresented segment of the electorate just waiting to vote against the establishment if given a chance.

No, there is not a huge segment.

There are a few ... some of them nutcases.

Ross Perot tapped into that segment and it got us one Clinton.

You people tapping into it could get us another.

Good luck.

Other than Ross Perot, who gave us Bill Clinton, name one other time.

Thoughtomator says,"Start a new party... it's been proven time and time again that there is a huge underrepresented segment of the electorate just waiting to vote against the establishment if given a chance."

I say, "Forget it, it's also been proven time and time again that a third party just doesn't fly. Stick with the GOP, and work from within. Nothing in this life is ever going to be perfect. We have to do the best with what we've got, and we sure don't want to work for or with the Democrats."

Yeah, and we'll get another Clinton. No thank you.

A third party seems inevitable at some point, and I have to admit as time goes on I find less and less to identify with in the Republican party. Though I will never vote Democrat, there is a gap here the Repubs are not addressing.
