For heaven’s sake, just vote 3rd party. If the 3rd party candidate(s) can get 5% of the vote, he/she/they will participate in national debates, and could, at that point, become a major player. A lot of people just are not aware of how much more in sync the constitution party (for example) is with their own beliefs.
Thanks for your comment (post 58). I have been thinking of exactly that, and the Constitution Party is the one I would focus my attention on.
I know for a certainty that the Republican Party as currently constituted does not represent me in any fashion and I want nothing to do with it.
