"republicrats and demopublicans are flip sides of the same coin"

Actually there is a third side to the political coin. It's called the edge. If you look closely at it you'll see a tiny inscription, the nearly invisible and irrelevant platform of the libertarians: a mixture of goofy isolationism and luddite scare mongering and all funded by hot air and cotton candy. (Harry Browne's dream, it seems, is for one day to be able to keep all the apparatus of government in a mayonnaise jar that he puts under his pillow every night. )

Now when you flip that coin, what are the chances it'll ever, ever, ever land on that third side?

But thanks for wasting your vote...most of your "platform" is just a retread of anarchist proposals that began on the fringe right.
