I see what you are saying. But you can still make an effect. Use forums like this, or make a blog, post a youtube video, write on facebook, and try to change other people's minds. Take the fight outside your state. But don't try too hard, I am not liberal, lol jk, freedom of speech right?

I would never move to another state over whether it is blue or red. Honestly, for all the interest, presidential politics does not have much influence in my life. The only two times were with LBJ and his war which got me drafted and sent there, and Bush's recession which hurt my home price pretty bad and got me stuck in my current house when I wanted out. As for the rest, I doubt it mattered much.

They are more similar than you may think-both would reign in Wall St/The Fed and put an end to the war (profiteering) machine-two of the most important issues to me.

Ron Paul actually said Bernie Sanders is the most "free market" candidate since he would target crony-capitalism/private subversion of our Government.

Not saying I will be voting for Bernie in General election, I will go with third party most likely.
Just keep this in mind. The last time a significant number of people voting for a 3rd party candidate, we ended up in Iraq for more than a decade and thousands of American lives lost there.

Just sayin'.
