Great article about 3rd party voting.

[Jer]

Dude- did RP get the votes or not? He did not, so he was NOT on the ballot. For fucks sake man just deal with the fact that a third party is not capable of winning currently, and all the crap its supporters keep throwing out there sounds like nothing more than sour grapes.

You want facts? I could exercise my google-fu and spout off a bunch of stats and dates blah blah blah, but instead how about this-

Ross Perot- 3rd party guy who actually had some good ideas, but was seen as a bit of a nutcase, withdrew. nothing more than a distraction.

Ralph Nader- oh yeah, I have not forgotten about that guy

Ron Paul- Scary dude, very scary. Do you actually understand his methodolgy? Its deluded and doesnt make sense. He will never be elected President and it does not take much thought processes to come to this conclusion.

But lets say he WAS somehow elected, he would get nothing done. Literally nothign would get done and this country would be worse off than it is now.

Believe otherwise? Explain how a guy who has no respect amongst his peers and no leverage of any kind will get anything done with Congress? or the SCOTUS? Please tell me how this fairy tale is going to work, because I think we all know it cannot.

Gary Johnson- Really? Sounds like a good guy, has good intentions, but again, he cannot get anything done.

As far as restoring the Rights we had in the beginning, good luck with RP or GJ getting that done. Want those Rights restored? Get a majority of the US citizenry behind you and work for a change. Say it cant get done? Sure wont the way your going about it.

Typical 'RP can't do ANYTHING in office but BO can ruin our country!' speak.

Typical 'RP can't do ANYTHING in office but BO can ruin our country!' speak.

There are democrats, who support Obama, in Congress. Last time I checked, we really haven't elected any libertarians to any congressional seats. So yes, Obama CAN ruin our country, because he has the backing of the dems. Paul can't do diddly because the Libertarians have alienated people for the last few years, and neither party is likely to back him.
