  • WHAT! a give and take? to help the people get at the truth???? no way!! there is NO significant diff. between the two parties. the last few yrs. have shown us this. mccain wouldve done the same exact thing obama has been doin. in fact, bush did it b4 he left. fuck both parties

  • Of course he loves the two party system, that way the status quo never changes, the two parties are a joke. Now after the Bush Administration, the two parties are more similar than ever, a supposedly conservative president has spent more money than has ever been spent in 50 years. Now we have our President Elect saying he wants to cut taxes while creating 600,000 new federal jobs out of thin air. Sorry but both parties are corrupt beyond belief.

  • Most countries have two party systems, even those whose third parties have high scores, like in Europe where they often reach over 10% (some up to 20%), but the US is one of the worst in that sense. Not only because no third party stands a single chance of reaching a respectable score (the media ignores them too much) but also because the difference between Dems and Reps is honestly pretty much negligible, more so than the mainstream left/right parties in Europe which are also quasi identical.

  • He is clearly against any additional voices. He refers to the possible people in both parties that could be elected, as a "coalition".

  • @glockman1727ak47 1) I dont have time for better ways. 2) I'm Canadian so it's not rly my job. Good luck!

  • @nethoser Being rude does not wake people up. There are better ways than being rude. What do you think would be a better way?

  • @glockman1727ak47 I was rude to challenge you guys to wake the FUCK UP!

  • @glockman1727ak47 People would have to start voting for 3rd party candidates, but its hard to even know who 3rd party candidates are because media outlets are bought off by either the right or the left. There are few popular websites that go down the middle and aren't biased, but they aren't popular among the common voter to make a difference, plus they typically focus on the main left/right political parties instead of political candidates who are 3rd party.

  • @thispoorguy how do we change this?

  • @nethoser although you are rude i agree with you. what is wrong with people... " i am not political " ,<-- those people are the problem.

  • Can this guy express a SINGLE thought sans using the word "I"?

  • I'm so glad I'm Canadian...

    HAHA! Sucker Americans with your two party corrupt system, you guys are fucked and you brought this on your selves with your rampant apathy. Keep on watching American Idol and not caring, see where it leads your dumb asses! LMFAO
