I meant more along the lines of candidates. It doesn't really matter how many people vote if you've got thing worth while to vote for. What I meant was more about seeing true third party candidates...and why stop at 3? why not 5 or 10? Why must it always be broken up into Republican or Democrats? Does that truly define who we are? The two party system is a contrived Machiavellian illusion created for the purpose of letting people think there is "choice" but when your menu has been whittled down to two items...how much choice do you really have?

We don't even give third party candidates a place in debates or any TV air time. Ross Perot was the exception because he was rich enough to buy his way in...but I've seen stray dogs more qualified for public office than that moron...smile

Now I must go eat...BBLbig smile
