The Dysfunction of Plurality in Government

For the entirety of my life, when voting for President, I have been given the lesser of two evils. And I can only recall one election cycle that had a serious third party candidate; 1992 Ross Perot.

Perot scared the establishment so badly that there hasn't been a real threat to the establishment since. Not by a long shot.

One thing that both the GOP and the DNC agree on is that THEY will decide who get elected and whom does not. That's called the Uniparty. There's essentially no difference between Dems and Republicans any more. For instance, if you take away the hot button issues that the general public seems to get hung up on....abortion, gun control, climate change etc. you will see what I mean.

People in this country vote the way they are taught to vote. This is either accomplished by their parents, their religion, or the media. But my belief is the vast majority of people who vote cannot articulate why they are voting for a given candidate. And most will cast their vote based on a single fucking issue. It's truly maddening

 Here's my suggestion and, in fact, my ultimate desire for the American voter: Stop looking at American politics through the lens of the two-party system!! Branch out. Do some research to find candidates outside the establishment that fits what you desire in your representation. We cannot continue to vote for two devils and choosing the "better" devil to lead the country.
