If it is a Clinton, Bush or someone else, they all came from the established
system. So is a REAL change ever possible?
Isn't it about time the US introduces the Proportional Representation
election system? Then more parties would arise and people could make a real
choice, instead of raging against the other and basically saying "you're at
least less bad than what we have now". Well okay, what do I know, I live in
a country were we have PR and we get stuck with dumb ass politicians anyway,
but the chance of a real change would be much higher and it's a good thing
for minorities...
A two party system is not likely to change; Are the Democratic or Republican
parties going to push a candidate upfront with new ideologies? Is anything
going to change? Okay, getting rid of Bush would be highly supported by me,
but I hope the alternatives are more than "less bad"...and that's hard to
see...
Sander from the Netherlands...
