For those that are fed up with our political duopoly, consider voting for 3rd party candidates and even better, do what more & more Americans are doing and register to vote as an Independent.
I just hope they get a big turn out. Libertarian, Green, write in, whatever.
I want these two big parties that turn their backs on most middle class Americans to lose because they stabbed their base in the back
For me I will wonder if people like Farrakhan are right after all. I honestly felt that America had changed until the tea party showed up and now after one debate how could mitt and his the rich first policies be accepted. Then I started reading about the white male vote and how it never goes anywhere but for other white males and I realized why romney made his come back.
So now I have to wonder how does this same attitude play out in everyday life? if these men will not support anyone but their own race then should minorities be the same way? I knew there was plenty of racism in the GOP but now I have to wonder is it just the GOP and the tea party or is it much wider and deeper than that?
By your logic, black men are even more racist than white men, considering how overwhelmingly they are voting for Obama.

I am voting 3rd party. Was going to vote for Ron Paul. But am going to vote for Gary Johnson the Libertarian candidate. Ron Paul got the message out there, and were he running as an independent he would more than likely have my vote.
That's the thing with minorities. They just want a fair go at life. Nothing more than that. It's nervous white people that really ruin things. As a minority in management, I work in environments that are majority whites, the white men are always the most nervous and kiss my ass the most.
The only thing I can think of is: they think I'm going to try and "get even". It's really a scene to watch. They can't hide their feelings neither. Some of them don't even realize that they are displaying them. They lose all composure. It's quit sad to see.
I experience this as well. I also see my white counterparts react totally different to discipline and performance when the person they are dealing with is black. They are always much more aggressive toward the black employees. They seem to always see salvageable qualities in the white employees. When challenged the look they give says it all. I wonder what they say when I'm not there

Some people say that the 2 parties need to work together, but when they do we get Patriot Act renewals; bailouts for big business;Citizen United still being in full effect; NDAA and the continuation of the eternal holy crusade.
We need more cats like Ron Paul & Denny to rein this duopoly in.
