It’s a 2 party system. We all have to choose one or the other, or else choose not to participate. Being in a third party is a way of not participating.

Back to the question we have posed many times:

If we agree that a two party system is best, then WHY does it always have to be the same two parties? Why can’t we dump one or both and establish new parties. Third party efforts would be necessary to accomplish this.

A way to wake up the two existing parties is to create a potential for the existing parties to be replaced. To create such a potential does require formidable grass-roots efforts to create alternative parties.

As long as we continue in the mind set that a two party system must always mean choosing either Republican or Democrat, the declension of our nation will continue.

We don't have a two party system now. We have a one party system. The two existing parties are one in purpose and policy nowadays. The emergence of a Constitutional third party will help restore a two party system.

Could someone tell me where this insane idea originated. It's not Constitutional.
