    Default Why Third Parties Can't Win American Elections

    Here’s why a third party can’t win an American election.

    All you need to do to recognize the fix that’s in is look at the ballot access requirements in every State. Third parties have to spend the lion’s share of their donations hiring folks to pound pavements petitioning the public just for enough signatures to make the ballot. Every State has its own number of signatures for ballot access and that signature requirement is determined solely by the Democrat/Republican Duopoly and intentionally cumbersome to limit election competition.

    Secondly, because the Duopoly has total power in America, they get to control news outlet access to government and thereby they create a media “Good Ole Boy” system only willing to play ball with the Duopoly politicians and thereby even controlling the “National Political Debate,” no others need apply.

    Thirdly because the Duopoly has total power in government every Special Interest is obliged by unwritten mandate to only pander to and contribute to the Duopoly Parties and the Duopoly candidates because they hold the power and have cornered the market place on politics, laws and regulations.

    It’s a fucking racket folks! The bastards of the Duopoly learn from one another which form of bribery works best to capture the idiot’s vote. That’s why Republicans became BIG government socialist programmers right along with the Democrats and that’s why Democrats became BIG government Military Industrial Complex supporters just like the neo-con RINO Republicans. Look closely folks they’re all the same!!!

    The American Duopoly is like the NFL, it’s 2 fucking conferences playing the same fucking game. No other’s need apply!

    Oh Yeah! I shouldn't be forgetting the preposterous excuse of American voters why they don't vote for third parties. "I don't vote for third parties because they can't win."

    Translation: "Third parties can't win because I don't vote for them."

    And that's the "Self Fulfilling Prophecy." Perfect genius of the ignorant moronic American voter. No wonder the founders attempted with vigor to limit the roll that democracy could play in American government, huh?

    BIG BRAINS make fun of you because of this. " Third parties have to spend the lion’s share of their donations hiring folks to pound pavements petitioning the public just for enough signatures to make the ballot."

    You clearly think money should dictate who is exposed as a runner.

    BIG BRAINS know that money doesn't decide the best president. And this is where we are lost, ever since Citizens United..........clearly.

    I started Democrat, turned Republican, turned Libertarian, turned VOTER.

    I'm happy the party sheeple are as ignorant as they are because I know exactly where they stand. They don't have to use their brain like me, they just conform to their parties platform.

    And platform people are easy to debate.

    And someday when you grow up Goober you’ll surely expose your BIG BRAIN and enlighten us how one becomes politically exposed without money, huh Idiot?

    BIG BRAINS know that money doesn't decide the best president. And this is where we are lost, ever since Citizens United..........clearly.
    Citizens United’s court decision simply confirmed the role money plays in American politics relative to the system created by the Duopoly. The Duopoly of which Democrats are 50%, created the money=free speech system. It wasn’t a Citizens United Or a Court creation, it is a DUOPOLY CREATION GOOBER!!!

    So when did the "duopoly" create this sinister system you speak about?

    It's apparent to any sane folk that they've been perfecting the dictatorship since the first days they discovered they had the combined collective power to do it and own every partisan asshole who can't discredit the evidence of it I've presented.

    So Goober you can attempt to deny it just like you attempted to deny that the CIA was involved in Saddam,'s coming to power in Iraq and the deposing of an elected leader in Iran and replacing him with the brutal Shah. So have at it Goober, I'm excited to communicate.

    So in other words, you cannot identify when this sinister "duopoly" you rant about was formed and it's sinister attempts to take over the world; thank you for edifying that.

    By the way; do you also believe in chemtrails?



    And no dunce; the CIA did not assist Saddams reign of terror in Iraq.

    I don't think that CL said that the CIA assisted in Saddam's reign of terror. I think he said that the CIA was involved in Saddam's rise to power, just like they were involved in the Shah of Iran's rise to power.
