A choice whether or not to determine the future of America by continuing the 2016 American Voter Revolt.
If youve voted in several Presidential elections in America, you may have, at some time, felt unenthusiastic about choosing between the political version of Tweddle Dee and Dweddle Dum of Alice and Wonderland fame.
You had cause to feel that way. It wasnt your fault.
Had you come of voting age in 1904, you not only would be dead now, you would have, throughout your life, missed the opportunity to choose between Presidential candidates representing two, distinct, major, political parties.

From 1880-1900, the average, eligible-voter participation rate in the six Presidential elections was 77.1%. From 1904-1924, the average, eligible-voter participation rate in the six Presidential elections was 58.2%. Why the 18.9% drop? you ask. The answer is simple. Between the 1900 election (73.2% participation), and the 1904 election (65.2%), voters perceived a dwindling away of the ideological differences between the two major parties. Eventually, voter participation fell to 48.9% in 1924. Nope. IMMIGRATION is the reason.
