Seriously if you are going to bitch about it.. don't do your biased "blame the liberal" when both parties do the same shit. If their was a "third" party they would be doing the same shit as well because they can..
Remove big money from politics and suddenly a lot of fucking things will change because campaigns will have to be funded by the people, not corporations.

1. It has EVERYTHING to do with the current two-party political system. They are corrupt. You don't ever get to even play on the level of the national stage unless you have already given up all of your ideals and bowed down to the party machine and become a crook.
2. I guess you didn't read what I wrote and once again just jumped up all defensive of Democrats like you always do.
3. You can't "remove" money. It's already ILLEGAL to buy politicians votes...but they do it anyway.
You are completely ass-backwards. You need to remove the type of people who would accept that money.
We need men and women with integrity to run for public office.
You just don't get it do you? No matter how much money that EVIL big business has...YOU CAN'T BUY WHAT'S NOT FOR SALE.
And unfortunately, our political system has DEvolved into 2 party system (that Thomas Jefferson warned against) that ensures that all politicians (yes, even your beloved Democrats) are for sale.
