The GOP has no clear leader, hell Palin has more clout getting someone elected than Barry does and Palin doesn't even hold an office, she quit her office and is getting more respect than the president. Out of 17 people she has backed, 10 won
Barry has increased the entitlements and the size of the government and the national debt more than anyone has ever done and he did this during a bad recession, he's acting like a teenager with his first bank account. It's like buying a brand new car when you're working at Taco Bell.
So at this point with the democrats completely out of touch and the GOP with no leadership, at least yet, I find that this would be the perfect time for getting a third party up, if they believed in less government, entitlements we could afford, less regulation on small business, securing the borders and throwing people that do illegal things on wall street in prison, I would so be ready to join. Never mind the talking points of the two parties, like abortion and gun rights. You shouldn't back a party because of either of those. And a third party would hopefully be devoid of religious influence

As has already been pointed out...there are a multitude of parties...but not a single one of them are viable...and when one looks at their platforms and the people that they run for office...it is understandable why none are viable.
You apparently want some new party...but to think that a new party can become viable...is just kind of dreaming...because the two major parties pretty much have a lock on the financing it takes to become a viable party...even if the new party had a different and better platform and some outstanding people to run for office.
The fact is that no matter what the party or what their platform is or who the people that they run are...tens of millions will still be unhappy campers...just as they are now and have been with every administration/congress in my lifetime.
You get what you get and if you don't like what you get...every two years...every four years...and every six years...you have the opportunity to change what you get...but there will never be any major changes. The nation will keep stumbling along...pretty much as it has since the beginning.
