Jim, it doesn't seem like you're voting for a Party anymore but for a Lobbyist Group. When you go to the polls you have to decide if you're going to vote for Big Corporate or Big Union. Are you voting for the pharmaceutical and defense industry or are you voting for lawyers and teachers. Not to say that ANY of those people don't deserve attention but it sort of leaves the REST of us out. I think we need a Strong Third Party Candidate to straighten this MESS out. When Perot ran he posed enough of a threat that the "institutional parties" had to WAKE UP for a change and pay attention to the COUNTRY for once. I'd like to be able to vote for MYSELF and my Children and Grand Children for a change.
