No party is immune to corruption,

Exactly, but you think the Constitution Party would be the LEAST corrupt if they came into power. You have no basis for that belief because said Party has never been anywhere near a position of power.

Others here believe that ANY Party that controls high office will attract certain characters that consider their own interests before the nations interests. So we choose the one we trust the most to be the LEAST corrupt. Just like you do/did. The only differences are that our choice was actually one of the choices we had and your choice had/has no chance whatsoever, and our choice has a long track record of being less corrupt than the other choice.

I'm sorry if you don't like it but that's the way it is.

But aren't you tired of holding your nose when you pull the lever? I know I am.

Change is not made in giant leaps, but small steps.

Nor will it ever be anywhere near a position of power.
