No, it's because we are a two party country. THAT is the fact. Democrat versus Republicans.
Third party fringers have sideline seats... they're unelectable malcontents.
But what to do if the 2 parties are becoming more & more alike? Where do we go if the so-called "small government" party ends up expanding the size & role of government in the direction favored by the Dims? What do we do if we have a House Majority Leader who refuses to admit that government can't be cut any further & is lying thru his teeth when he says so? Where do patriotic Americans go when the GOP refuses to do its duty of protecting American sovereignty & patrolling our borders?
The Republican Party is a FAILURE in its once time-honored mission. The Barry Goldwater GOP is long gone & the GOP has moved ever so steadily towards the gargantuan-sized government supported by the Dims. THAT'S A FACT, & there is no evidence that the GOP is trying to do the opposite.
Third party fringers have sideline seats... they're unelectable malcontents.
Thinking like this will most assuredly perpetuate the malaise.
I prefer to continue working for the correct candidates at the grassroots level and remaining optimistic.
