Wake Up, Get Angry, DO SOMETHING - Spitzer, Fed, the F. Fathers, Economy and Bush

[Tullaeniel]

You know who will fix this mess. Bill Clinton thats who. If Hillary gets elected then Bill Clinton will be back in the white house without shit to do all day. So I know he'll be fucking and maybe this time he'll get an intern to go ass to mouth. Shortly afterwards the media will get wind of this and all over the media we'll here about Bill and his Ass to Mouth tales. This will still start an ass to mouth revolution making it mainstream so even the most frigid of housewifes will be doing it. This will bring morale to new heights and motivate men to be kind to one another, it will bring back integrity and honor to man. Once again we will help our fellow man and greedy will fall sway.


P.S. If you find fault in this argument go fuck yourself. I declare victory on this thread.

XBR4, which is the exact same as the XBR5, just not a glossy exterior. XBR8 will only be 46" and 55" :P

The system may deform every now and again to accommodate a third party, or even a fourth, but in general it's a two-party system. The way to get around this without switching to something like proportional representation is to change the voting rules to something like approval voting or the single transferable vote. The change would have to come state-by-state, which is good in that you could test it out first to make sure it works and let the rest of the country get an idea of what a preferential voting system looks like. Big changes like that generally ought to happen gradually.

The bad thing about a more than two party system is that in the end you'll have two coalitions of parties (2 vs 2 or 10 vs 10 doesn't really matter), where, the smaller one will rule the country just by threatening to leave the coalition. I see this happen often where I live and it's the worst thing that could happen overall. Two parties, for how sad this can be, are the best compromise.
