Will We Ever Get a Choice for President?

Post by mnaz »

I thought Clinton vs Dole was horrible,
then Cocaine Bush vs. ridiculous Gore, and
Hillary vs. the new right wing media empire,
then Trump versus Biden and what a joke,
two old men who barely speak English, and
yet they have the gall to foist their bullshit
on us yet again.

the dems and the gop bicker and needle each other while so many citizens suffer....we both mostly want the same things.....good schools, safe streets, good wages, good health care......but whats holds all of that back is something the parties completely agree on....The Two Party System.....

Yep. It "functions" mainly to serve itself and hold onto power. For all of our talk about "democracy," this is a pretty sorry form of it. Ironically (moronically?), DJT was supposedly the "outsider" who was going to come in and shake up the system, but when he had his chance he was a too often incompetent total asshole who wanted to appoint himself Dictator (essentially trade two parties for just one). Which should be unacceptable to all of us.

Ralph Nader, among others, has called our system a “two-party dictatorship”

Basically the same reason I voted for Biden 4 years ago.

No choice. Not really.

like WWE for seniors
I'd rather learn from one bird how to sing than teach 10,000 stars how not to dance.

... and one of them a pathologically lying, cheating asshole felon who kisses up to totalitarian dictators like Kim Jong Un and Putin and would like to join their ranks.
