My concern is that far too many voters seemed pre-occupied with protecting the party line rather than if their elected leaders are doing their utmost to protect and preserve our U.S. Constitution and hence the United States of America. What do you believe?
There is too much corporate involvement in politics. Cannot really see changing the party system without banning the Political Action Committees which basically pitch the candidates like soda commercials (Coke vs. Pepsi) where your brand is better than ours. They do not go into what brand might be more nutruitional or cost less, just that it tastes better than the other one.
