Neither side is doin a hot job at winning the hearts and minds of the 20-somethin generation. I'm disguested and its a shame. Its just a game to them. I know I'm not the only one who feels the lack of representation.
I wish there were more prominent third-party figures, the other two parties are too far entrenched.

Lock both sets of buggers, republicans and democrats (and that is not to say anything bad about buggers, some of my best friends are buggers) in the superdome and whomever emerges victorious...shoot them.

I dont know what could be done to "fix" the problem.. Other than stop the advertising and we all know that wont happen. My point in my previous post was that "Politics" and "Propaganda" have VERY similar meanings.. and could be construed as the same thing....
The two party governing system is obselete.. If someone wishes to run, they should be made to run as an independant, with their own beliefs and values and not those of "Parties" this would also lower the risk of "Party loyalties"...
