[QUOTE="Dr. Tad Hussein Winslow, post: 712699, member: 7123"] Ok, fine. But what's that got to do with anything, particularly the question asked? :D The WAY a third party becomes viable is by exposure/discussion/momentum, so if the question is, which party, in a vacuum, is best, or which party do you actually belong to, then that's the highly appropriate time to talk about and espouse the virtues of one's minority third parties, not limit the poll and discussion to the two worst parties - the two wings of the republicat uniparty that work together to suppress third parties and continue to take our country in the wrong directions on almost all fronts, regardless of which wing is in power at the moment. I would rank the parties in order like this, in terms of coming the closest to representing my views: 1. Constitution Party 2. Reform Party 3. Libertarian Party 4. Green Party 5. (second to worst) Republican Party 6. (last [U]and[/U] least) Democrat Party None are ideal. I think the greatest thing would be if the powers that be at the 4 minority parties, or perhaps 3 of the 4, would overlook their differences and combine their forces and meld the best parts of the minority parties ([B]strict construction of the constitution in re 2nd, 10th, 4th, 5th, 7th, and 1st amendments - particularly the 2nd and 10th,[/B] fiscal responsibility and smaller government size at the federal level [including greatly reduced federal tax burden and a switch from income tax to national sales tax excluding food & other necessities], social libertarianism, and a populist approach to the economy [yes that means tarriffs, leaving NAFTA etc. to protect our own manufacturing economy -will pull in the unions], non-interventionist foreign policy, and strongly protect the environment & consumer to pull in the Greens), I think such a party could really be viable to oust some of the Rs and Ds and give us 3 choices instead of two come election day. Choices are good, and the two-party system sucks hairy gonads. Ron Paul is the best example of such a politician (although he doesn't align exactly of course) - we need more Ron Pauls and more charismatic Ron Pauls, and we need to get the minority parties talking to find their common ground and combine their forces to actually get some real power created.
