Or we just need to institute instant runoff voting. While we're at it, make election days national holidays and make voting mandatory. Next let's eliminate the electoral college and put term limits on legislators. Last but not least, we must require states use independent commissions for voter redistricting to prevent gerrymandering. Proportional representation, anyone?
The question isn't what we need, it's how to accomplish it. :(
Let's focus on that then.
How do you accomplish what you post in this current political climate? It feels warm and fuzzy until we have to talk shop. Do you think it's a viable option to actually obtain or meet those goals?
Do you think politicians would agree to term limits?
Well...to accomplish that you gotta grab it by...
Given the situation, trump did alright in the second half. His press conference and first half of the debate were terrible and stupid. I am curious if the unendorsing will continue. To me, backing trump seems more of a liability for the down ticket republicans than sticking with him. Ryan would be the big one to drop, and it would make sense given his electorate. I think backing trump is really hurting him in the general.
Was anyone shocked by the wiki leaks drop? It is pretty common knowledge that hillary backs a globalist economic approach, despite her tack left during the primaries. Having "public and private" views kind of fits into that known quantity bucket as well. Of course she tailors her message to the audience.
Wonder what her public view on grabbing the pubic is....ayyyyyooooohhhhhh
I think this is an ideal opportunity to bring in more than two candidates.
I hope trump continues and refuses to back out of the race. I hope this results in a mass exodus away from trump, and I think independents leaning left would also consider increasing the ticket. Obviously those in power don't want this to happen, which is allowing more seats at the adults table. Seeing Ryan run on his own against donald or seeing other major stories about defecting candidates support more than two candidates. I don't think anyone is surprised to hear this from trump's mouth, I think the undecideds weren't swayed much either way. We are still required to choose between a giant douche and a turd sandwich.
Seeing all of the political infighting I see more independent candidates getting more popular. I despise the fact that liberals are never liberal enough but too liberal for conservatives, and I despise the fact that conservatives aren't conservative enough, and I have no interest in voting extreme right or extreme left. I think this is the disconnect with independent voters and it is astounding to me that either side is doing nothing. No matter what anyone does it will make some other number of people unhappy. That's how it goes. This won't end in sunshines and rainbows and beers shared over stories. It will be a shit show of epic proportions.
The first rule of Trump Support Club is that you do not talk about Trump Support Club.
