I would bet that millions of Americans who do NOT vote because of the current two party system would be interested in seeing another party as well. |

It's that nobody gives them money and in reality the VAST MAJORITY of americans do not know whats going on in the world, and even if they do, they don't give a shit. Honest Truth. If it doesn't cause gas to go up, American Idol to be rescheduled, or there isn't an explosion seemingly created by a minority group, my fellow Americans don't even know it happened. |

There is not contradiction between democracy and republic, moron. One needs to be very stupid to believe this bullshit. Republics can be authoritarian republics or democratic republics, and Monarchies can be absolutist monarchies or democratic monarchies. The inverse of "Republic" is "Monarchy", and not "Democracy". |

Each of those candidates will have ballot access only in a few states. That's how the authoritarian regime of the USA works: third party candidates are excluded from ballot access... |
