    Sounds fuckin great; if you know how to navigate in the direction of the salad please let me know

    I used to say voting in the party from the ground up. But that hasn’t worked and the more we try the more the parties fight it.

    The 2020 DNC “fund” changes is even worse than Citizen’s united, but no one ever mentions that.

    The DNC outright says if they don’t like a primary they can ignore the results. And they’re already taking delegates from states.

    But it’s a different age now, debates rarely even get held and haven’t mattered for decades. Which was the big thing that used to hold third parties back: access to debates and tv interviews. The parties are nothing more than agents at the end of the day. Just middle men who hand money between people and keep some while enjoying the high life.

    What matters now is internet exposure and buzz.

    For good candidates that can be almost free, for shit candidates that can cost over a billion dollars even against someone as hated as trump. And Bernie showed us that even with small donors, you can run a pretty big campaign.

    A third party president only takes getting people on the same page.

    Political change is rarely slow and gradual, shit happens quick, even though the people who were in power always says change will take forever right up till it happens
