If a candidate is so fringed then give them the same opportunity in front of the cameras to make an a$$ of themselves. You might be surprised that your so called fringe candidates are highly educated and probably would be a formidable challenge to the caviar eating selectees.
If lunatic fringe becomes apparant........ the people can decide to nix them. But IMHO, Kerry is lunatic fringe, but has big money behind him and an agenda that can undo over 225 years of investment in our constitutional republic.
It is a farce that Americans have become conditioned to believe our election process has a choice between 2 choices who broker deals all the time with only their survival in mind. A 3rd or 4th candidate in the mix would expose the good ol boys club.
Afghanistan just had elections with 12 choices on the ballot. The people all campaigned to large crowds and were given access to the media equally. Could we say that perhaps Afghanistan has become more democratic than Americas 2 party choice election?
Did you see Mr. B. in the nationally televised debate last week? He had his chance!
You could. But then the ideologues here will call you a loonitarian ideologue and start comparing you with guys who spit at people or drink too much colloidal silver.
Much better to just ignore these threads altogether. I forgot that earlier and actually thought I had one of them listening to reason. Turns out I was wrong. They were just wasting my time.
Trolls. The lot of them....
