Look folks, it’s time to wake up. There really and truly is no difference between the Democrat and Republican Parties. Yes, there may be some Republicans who are conservative, but the PARTIES THEMSELVES are both on pretty much the same page, on almost every issue.
Don’t give me any of that “lesser of two evils” nonsense. The GOP is not “lesser” than the Democrats in that regard. Seriously, Pelosi and Boehner and even coming out into the open with working together. What more do you need?
The GOP is a dead letter. Leave it. Instead of whining about how third parties never get anywhere or how hard it would be to replace the GOP, get started working instead. Organize. Get prepared. Work. These aren’t dirty words, y’know.
The problem that I see with a 3rd party being formed is that it too would be infiltrated by liars and schemers.
It would be destroyed from within as quickly as possible, it would be demonized by both of our current “parties”.
The root of the problem is that we have a large number of people who are absolutely insane, completely obsessed with power, and totally bent on crashing this train into the brick wall as hard as they can, then rebuilding a new and better train from the wreckage.
As long as we have people in this country who do not know what freedom is, or why it exists, or how it was won, or what it takes to keep it, we are going to have this problem.
Republicans and Democrats agree that the purpose of the State is redistribution. How much, and to whom, and under what circumstances, there are disagreements. But no elected officials of either Party believe that it is wrong to take from you and give to another of their own choosing, for reasons that make sense to them.
Republicans and Democrats agree that you have rights - lots of them. They also agree that any question ABOUT your rights, or whether or not something IS a right, should not be decided by a political process because that is divisive. So, they both agree that the voice of the People as contemplated in Articles IX and X can only be voiced by nine unelected life tenure judges, and that five of them, at any time or for any reason, can give new rights and take away old ones, particularly if those old ones arise out of majority voting.
Republicans and Democrats all believe in diversity. They, ignoring completely the results of all social science research on this subject, and contrary to millennia of human experience and wisdom, believe that the more diverse our country, its institutions, and any private entities within her become, the more cohesive and productive we will become.
Republicans and Democrats almost all believe in free trade and immigration. These things are good for various constituencies of both parties while they wreck the economy and the nation.
Many of the People, perhaps a majority, do not believe in any of these things.
But in our existing system, captive as it is to the MSM-mandated process for choosing two candidates for POTUS neither of whom will change a thing, leaves the People with no voice.
Somethings gonna blow.
