everyone loves to claim how 3rd parties are useless.
yet everyone also loves to bitch about the broken 2 party system.


they WANT you to think we have a 2 party system. technically we have 16 parties...
and the 2 big ones have been owned by all the same companies every time. both romney and obama will run this country just as bad.

instead of the attitude of "wasting my vote on a 3rd party" you should be thinking more along the lines of "escape the failed 2 parties, there is absolutely nothing we can lose at this point voting for 3rd"

the poll has the candidates for the green party, constitution party, and libertarian party.
all on the ballet

this time there is even a candidate on ballet for the justice party that isnt on this poll

i even posted their debate some pages back. it took place like 2 weeks ago (larry king :D)
are they ACTUALLY completely separate parties or do they have their own allegiances to the main 2?

like over here we have liberal and labor - the main two. Then there's all the other parties like the greens, love party, etc.
But if I was to go and vote for the greens, they would chose to align with labor and I'd essentially still be voting for one of two options. is it the same over there or what?

they are actually separate.

running independently just means you were of one of these parties, but you werent a pick from that party to represent them in this election. and you are running on your own money and support.

but all these parties listed are actually real separate ones.

i dunno if you are UK or not, i forget. also not sure how they work.
but in the US, the different parties dont work together lol. its pretty bitter with the separation. its also not good for a political career to change parties like ever.

I think Boltster is an Aussie. Which is cool.

But for some reason I think he might be a New Zealander, which is Icy

Which is why our country will almost never be on the appropriate path.

I plan to get a high pay job, I want to keep that money for myself, I don't think a cent of it should go to some lazy kaffer who wont get a job.

You won't though, you'll probably have a pretty average job. Everyone who is unemployment totally never looked for a job, right?

So cs188 made a YTP of Romney and Obama

This is very true. The relationship between parties has degenerated to the point where neither one can work together and get good work done, which is one of the reasons why America has such a hard time with politics and people get very hyped up and aggressive about elections.

By the way Bisjac, who are you voting for? You seem to have it all figured out more or less, so who do you think is the best candidate?

Because the economy was on the verge of collapse, because we are about to collapse!

It's conceivable that governor Romney could collapse!
