    I understand the sentiment (believe me, we agree more on the democrats than we disagree), but unless you’ve got some guns you’re gonna go shoot in DC that’s probably not gonna be how it happens.

    Otherwise, we cannot get new parties (with legit political power on a federal level) without serious election reform, reform that will only happen from within the current party structure. So while we need new parties in the long run, we’ve got some work to do for which we are going to have to work with Democrats.

      Not an american. Fix your shit please, not really going to tell you how to do it, just know that the world is watching your stupid tribalism in action and are getting sick of the states painting literally everything in blue or red. You don’t have a functioning democracy at the moment and its looking like soon will not have a functioning rule of law, at what point will the american people realise they are in that part of the history books?

        Yeah, you’re dead on, and believe me, a lot of us know it, and I hope we do fix it. I’m doing as much as I can I guess, and I promise that there are a lot of other people doing what they can, even if its not publicized like the bad stuff. We’ll see if it matters in the end.
