The question is why aren't there 3 or 4 more parties in the mix.
| Thats one of the things I actually feel hevusa has a good point on. I wish government could be influenced more by minor parties, or at least give them the oppertunity to spread their views.

Well you have made it very evident that you don't care to really look into any issues. 2 parties cannot, however, represent the view of nearly 300 million diverse views. | |

2 words explain it all-minor parties. | No the reason there are only two parties is because they have such a media stranglehold that no other party has a fighting chance. It certainly is not because the people don't want it. On the contrary, I think the American people are crying out for a change. After all, the only thing stupider than a Republican or a Democrat is when these two dumbasses start working together! | |

This whole administration has don nothing but to tarnish our global image and make a shame of us. The end of the Bush Administration will be the end of 16 continued years of American shame. | |

Another joke(heres you cue to laugh) | I am a moderate centrist. If I were to be a associated with a party (I am a registered independant) I would be a Libertarian. I was a republican, until I joined the military, saw the world and opened my eyes... | |
