Vote Third Party.

Straight Libertarian ticket for me -

Not that I fully know what it or any party 100% stands for (and I literally mean that; despite the amount of attention that I pay towards politics and researching political figures, I still feel like I don't fully understand a single political stance or party), nor will it matter since I live in Illinois, but that's what I'm doing.

Heh, kinda seems like there really aren't any political parties anymore. Just a bunch of old coots in suits shittin' orders and compromises. Meh.

Have you written your congressmen lately? Did you vote?

The system will favor those who take part in it.

(Of course, it's broken in that big money has undue influence, but still, if you don't play, you can't win.)

Good read, Ned; when I visited there a while ago I only took the "World's Smallest Quiz" and sure enough was right at the top.

That's another problem I have... I read through all of those links and find myself agreeing with it the whole time, but that makes me question a) how neither party embraces any of those ideals and b) why something that seems so common-sense wouldn't be more appealing to a mass populace.

I know, unfortunately I know. It's the same situation in every single country with a few exceptions. Corporations and filthy rich pigs have the control of the countries, not these puppets called politicians, hence the tax cuts, unemployment, using the poor like slaves for a minimum wage, wars etc etc etc. The problem is that idiots rule this planet and they'll never realize this. We're doomed. Ignorance is a bliss afterall... I wish I thought that the world is getting better and better like my braindead sister does...

This has little to do with actual party platforms. Think people... election year... politicans...

As different as modern Republicans and Democrats actually are... they are comprised of the same kind of people: politicans, and politicans all share common behavoral traits.
