[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][img][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Democrats have a vested interest in maintaining a two-party system because it guarantees their place at the table.  This might be good for career politicians but it's not good for voters because, in the end, we don't really have a choice and democracy is just a joke.  Every year we play the same stupid game of voting for the same people and the same party.  Votes are now taken for granted because there's no viable third party.[/quote]

And has anyone done to break the stalemate, apart from swinging for the fences every four years and whining that the system is rigged?[/quote]

No, because both parties enjoy the status quo.  This thread is all about not voting third party. Both Nancy and Hillary have been vocal about "a vote for a third party is a vote for Trump" rhetoric. It's like the DNC is scared of a little competition. It's the DNC's job to convince people to vote for Biden.  Instead, it's been a campaign of why voters shouldn't vote for a third party candidate.[/quote]
This. There is very little self-awareness or willingness to think what is it about our party and our chosen candidate that people do not want to vote for them and what can we do to fix that. Instead it’s just people incessantly repeating that if you don’t vote for Biden you’re supporting Trump, destroying democracy, etc. No, it was actually your responsibility if you want my vote to put forward a solid candidate for me to choose. Instead you gave us 80 year old Joe Biden. Own the deficiencies with the candidate you decided to put forward. [/quote]
