re: It will be very difficult to come up with a third party. The FF did not like the European model of multi parties and intentionally constructed a political structure that was designed for a two party system.

I think its why both parties have become overconfident through the years.


The last part is key... they are so overconfident that they don't reflect the will of the people.

I'm 100% convinced that the time is ripe for a 3rd party. The Dems and Reps are both ideological, and both moving to the right. Neither represent the majority of the US, both are tools of the ideological or economic special interests.

Wake up, you are not a Dem. What do you have in common with the folks that are running the Dem party. You love the war? The real conservatives should think the same way about the Rep party. Are they evangelical?

A third party might not be successful, but it might bring some sanity to the process. A centerist, pragmatic Party that favors the middle class might bring America back to it's roots. It might make these guys realize that that represent people, not dogma.
