a mechanism whereby a third-party can be credible. The arcane and cumbersome rules that are required for a presidential candidate to qualify in all fifty states is just one example of the designed dysfunctionality of our political system.
Rules and regulations are good to a certain extent, but just like in business and commerce; regulations are more often used to keep the powerful and well connected in power rather than to protect and serve. In other words rules and regulations are used to keep out the competition. This makes me sick.
I like the sound of that. You vote for the lackey of the running dogs of capitalism that turns you on and you get sucked dry. Is that like BBBJ for a vote? That would make for a good election day special.
Absolutely right. Limited government advocates should consider the Libertarian party, and those left of center should go for the Greens. The only way to "waste" your vote is to go with the status quo which is killing us.
It's pointless in a winner-takes-all system, but what the hell. I'd rather vote for something I want and not get it than vote for something I don't want and get it.
If you're disillusioned about the voting process, just think of how many more options you'd have if we had a direct democracy to keep a check on our representative democracy.
I often vote for third-party candidates. While there is often the pragmatic "lesser of two evils" or "benefits of gridlock" type of deal; I much prefer voting for someone in whose platform I actually believe.
