Silver Wings:
I agree. The political parties agree not to enforce the constitution and the courts support them in it. It is clear the people are no longer even part of the process. If you look at many past elections it is pretty clear that one party does not even intend to compete, essentially giving the election to the other party. That happened when the Republicans had Dole run against Clinton. Did anyone actually believe Dole could win? This year we give McCain his shot, even though it was clear from the start he was a loser. Only Gov Palin gave him a shot. Now the press and many Republicans are beating her up to make sure she is not considered in 2012.
I do not believe that either political party represents my views, since for the most part their goals are only to stay in power and rake off as much graft as possible. It is time for a change.
