There seems to be an assumption that the problem with throwing such money toward Republicans being elected is the money. No, the problem is that it will help Republicans. To complain that Democrats have donors too makes no sense to me. They aren't Republicans, so what's the problem?

So your problem is the US is it isn't a single party system.

The dictatorship is strong with this one.

Not a bit. My problem is that one of your parties is the Republican party.

No, I didn't say a word about single party systems. It's stuff you made up and chose to pretend I said.

No he isn't. As I just explained, this business about my supporting a single party system is something your right-wing friend made up. You are both completely wrong. Please try to differentiate between things your fellow right-wingers say and what's actually true.

So you want a two party system where both parties are the same?

Sounds like a one party system to me.

Would it make you feel better if the republicans changed their party name? Then they would no longer be "republicans"

You seem out of your depth re American politics.

I want the Republicans to be relegated to the dustbin of history. I'm not sure why you think I was discussing the number of parties.

Has nothing to do with me. Everything you've attributed to me is something you've made up. Whatever it is that sounds like a one party system to you, it's echoing around inside your head and yours alone.

Making claim on what is NOT there doesn't do well for your reputation.
Again...you're comparing 10 years of Soro's donations...to just one from the Koch brothers...and losing. LOL.

So when the USA has two major politicans parties, and you want one to be religated to the dust bin, how many major political parties do you have left?

If word based math questions are too difficult, how about 2-1=?
