Clintoon won thanks to Ross Perot- he slpit the republican vote. I don’t blame him, i blame our election proces where someone can win with less than half the vote when it is split between 3 people. So... I suggest we have RUN-OFF elections where you keep voting until someone gets 50%
ESPEICALLY in the primaries!!!!
Only The top two stay in the race and you vote again.
That is how we got McLAME
Still, you are right to point out the problem of 3rd Parties, under the current system.
“That is how we got McLAME”
Not Really...
We got McCain because the REPUBLICANS in the California Primary decided we would get McCain.
We can’t even blame the Democrats for this one, because they were fighting between Hillary and The MEssiah.
2004 could be VERY Interesting, especially if we can CLOSE a few more primaries to Republicans only, because of the high number of Registration changes in 2008. The “Moderate” Republicans all voted for the Wonderkinder.
This is likely our BEST chance to get a REAL CONSERVATIVE candidate for President that we are going to see in our lifetimes.
We got McLame because the CONSERVATIVE vote was split among 3 or 4 other MUCH MORE conservative primary candidates
