Who is sick of our political system?

Nothing will ever change if we keep reelecting the same lame politicians every election. It's time to send a message, by voting against EVERY incumbent regardless of party affilitation. There is more than enough blame to go around on both sides. Throw the bums out.

Yes it is and I can't stand it. I think we should all be our own country and stay out of others..mind our own business...honestly...I think someone should hit that big red button and fix all the problems in 2 seconds. Wouldn't it make the world so much better?! haha!

Aren't something like 38% of Americans self-proclaimed independents who just align themselves with whatever party they agree with the most come election time?  So to answer your question, no, I do not think you are the only one unhappy with our wide open field of two party choices.

I wish we could just eliminate the party system completely, like George Washington suggested in his farewell address and his correspondence from about that time. (by the way, every reason he used to argue the issue is killing our political discourse right now) Unfortunately, the two major pains in the... I mean parties are too entrenched, with too much money and too many people who will blindly support them, no matter what, just because of their party label. But I do wish a third party would not just become effective, but dominate American politics, because all the arguments on both sides are coming to resemble the trenches of World War I before the US troops and the British invention of tanks showed up and began making progress. By the way, I love the Constitution Party, for the most part. Dr. Peroutka, your last candidate for the presidency, came by Lynchburg 4 days before the election, I got to meet him personally, and I even voted for him. Love it, love it.

You are correct but what are we going to do? We have a wonderful 2 party system--bad and worse. It has been that way forever and it isn't going to change.

My attitude is we've been duped.  Neither party is about solutions, their about problems.  The more problems there are, the more power that the parties and the politicians have.  They gain this power by PROMISING to fix the problem but they never seem to get around to it. God forbid its an election year nothing gets done then or if something is done it usually makes things worse.  \n\nMy solution become informed and vote.  Stop voting for parties but start voting for character and those trying to do the job, some are not many but some, vote third party.  Find out (really find out not what other people say, or the news) what your representatives are doing or have done and vote accordingly.

Yes I agree. I'm sick of the Labour party wiping Bush's arse and their neglect of the increase in crime. Great question.

I agree. I think we should get rid of parties and vote  individuals. All the parties are becoming entangled in their beliefs anyway.Maybe then on their commercials they would actually say what they want to do for us instead of bashing the other guy because of his party. They ought to make that a law anyway. On the campaigne commercials they should have to state what they believe in and not be allowed to mention anyone elses name . Just by the commercials how many people reading this actually knew what any of the candidates stood for ? I bet you knew who they were running aganst though huh ? Maybe if it was like this the party compitition would be gone and they would have more time and concern to focus ON THE AMERICAN PEOPLE !!!!

It seems to me that the two party system is antiquated and we need a total overhaul of the political system... along with the abolition of the electorial college.\n\nLiberals in the democratic party are afraid of being truly liberal. \n\nIn order to have a healthy democracy we need more choices and coalitions and fewer lobbyists from big business. The richest most powerful country in the world doesn't take care of its most vulnerable citizens...children and elders. \n\nI'm a socialist, can you tell?

I dislike it too.  Turns me off from even voting at all.  Its a disgrace to the whole voting process and what it stands for.  Its a shame that higher people in office can not see this and stop it.  Its not about the people.  Its about getting into office and that's it.  The tactics they use show that.  Mis-leading words and how they arrange them to turn one thing said into something else.  That to me is noting more than a lie and the way they go about pushing all this crap on us by adds and calling us at our personal home phone is ridicules.
