This has to be said: the problem with your country is the bi-partisan system. Here in Israel there are over 7 million people, represented by a huge variety of parties. Now most of the people here are Jewish and their families are almost universally from countries with what at least used to be a sizable Jewish populations; Eastern Europe, for instance (my family is Eastern European; Slavic pride!). Even non-Jews, such as Christian former Soviets and Arabs, have some Jewish ancestry. And even they don’t have enough seats in parliament (as Israel uses a unicameral system) to give everyone proper representation. In the US you have an enormous country of over 300 million people represented almost exclusively by two parties; it gets even more ridiculous when you consider how these parties have to cater to a vast array of fundamentally different ideologies, such as the Tea Party and the Log Cabin Republicans. There is no real choice; you have practically no choice, and you have to choose between two parties that have to cater to so many people there’s little actual guarantee as for what ideology they’ll espouse when they gain power (‘Romnesia’ being a prime example of this), assuming they’ll actually espouse one instead of just being corrupt cunts.
Also, Obama’s foreign policies are shitehouse.
So I say, instead of voting for the same old, try and change the system at last. This is not unprecedented: the American Whig party has been erased from US politics, for one, and the Republicans took their place. Go and vote for an independent nominee. How about Jill Stein?
