A Third Political Party

It is time for a credible, centrist political party in this country; a third party that makes a difference and challenges the pathetic status quo. The two party system, which has dominated since the late 1800's, is dysfunctional. The two party system often presents voters with a false choice, i.e., any middle option is excluded. It may be viewed as a Hobson's choice, i.e., there is no real choice if you accept the proposition of a present plutarchy in America. No matter which candidate you vote for, the same money controls.

Neither party is free from the influences of corporate and wealthy America; neither is in tune with the vast majority of Americans and their struggles in the current economic malaise; and neither is worthy of being one of only two.

If you agree, let me know. And let me know what you think can be done about it. Happy Weekend.
