First of all, the concept of a two party system breeds mediocrity. It helps keep the old saying, "business as usual" political plan in business. There is NO real political progress. When was there any substantial progress in the political arena?
Since the Reagan days, that all conservs want so desperately want to resurrect, the media has been one of the main marketing agents of the 2 party system. They alone choose the candidates for the people. They push the candidates that will be the best for their interests, not what is best for the country. OK, some are "conserv" or "liberal" which is just crap! take a long look at the candidates they push--none are truly different from the other--all are spokesman for the status quo.
True candidates of change, either right or left, are not given adequate air time. They spend time trying to discredit these candidates by asking stupid, moronic question like "do you believe in UFOS?" Questions like that help make a person a "fringe" candidate.
It is sad that the American voter allows this type of manipulation to continue.......I guess the lack of education in the No Child Left Behind program is doing its job well.
