How do we claim to be a free nation when our choices consist of left or right, blue or red, Conservative or Liberal? How can we consider these choices when our options are picked for us? In every election people get excited to vote. Excited because they get to put their man or woman in office, but is that really their man or women? Is that the person you would pick if there were more options? Would there be more accountability if there were more competition?

I know I’ve listed a lot of questions but these questions need answers. Both parties are scared to death when a viable third party gets to run. That is why in most districts it is so hard to get on the ballot. The politicians (both Democrat and Republican) work very hard not to allow their lively hoods to be tested by chance. So they act like they are, for the people, like they feel your pain. The problem is these parties don’t represent the people. These are life long politicians that are living under the umbrella of the elite, protected and shielded from the people they are suppose to be serving.

We can do better. We must do better. As the divide between the rich and poor grows exponentially the middle class is disappearing. This represents the biggest problems for us as a people and as a country. We can not afford to let these same ole politicians with these same ole ideas to keep destroying the country. Help me in supporting a third party. I feel we need a strong third party to get new ideas in and to scare these guys into action. We need more reasonable conversation not screaming from the left and the right. These are the only people being heard, not because they have any thing good to say, only because they scream the loudest. It’s not he who screams loudest. Let’s change this now!

Who ever your elected official is, up to President Obama, reach out to them, lets them know your feelings and concerns. If they don’t follow through get them out of there. They work for us bank bailouts and things of that nature should not be tolerated. Let’s become more proactive and hold all the elected officials accountable.
