I am about this close...
Honestly, would it be great to see both Democrats and Republicans thrown out of Congress? Instead of voters being anti-incumbent, how about anti-establishment?
How about electing a new national party that does not have establishment ties with multi-national corporations or special interest groups?
How about a party where it does not always have to answer to the unions, think tanks, lobbyists, and other so-called "political" elements?
Perot's Reform Party was an excellent example but its presence was mostly concentrated on the national election, not the state or local levels.
I really hate it when Democrats and Republicans accuse independent candidates of being politically inexperienced. Obviously, they're experienced because they got the money from their lobbyists and special interests and biased pollsters.
Who knows if the media and polling organisations are downplaying third-parties from becoming more powerful?
Would it require a billionaire like Ross Perot to jump start a third national party?
Would people stopping thinking of third-parties as being the "contributing" factor to the defeat of a major party candidate?
If voters are sick of a scandal plaguing one major political party, why choose the other major party as the saviour and not a third-party?
Should the Federal Elections Commission reduce the percentage needed to qualify for the presidential debates?
