Should we vote Third Party from now on? (Or at least Independent)?

Question

It seemed like not too long ago the Clinton Administration was corrupt and people demanded a non-Democrat president. Then the American people elected a Republican into the oval office and now people say the Republican Party is corrupt and that we should elect a Democrat into office (again). We have seen from past experience that both Parties have brought this country to shambles.

What I was thinking is that if this country really wants change, we should elect either a Third Party member or an Independent into office. Instead of this endless cycle of hypocrisy, we elect someone who isn't from a Party (or in a Third Party) that doesn't have a sketchy past?

Answer 1

You should never judge a candidate based on his/her party's past. Attention should be directed more toward the current issues and the candidate's policies rather than ancient history.

Answer 2

/ Vote for the best candidate.

Bush did not follow the ways of the Republican party.  Many republicans (who back McCain) are very dissatisfied with Bush, too.

Don't believe Obama's assertion that McCain is a continuation of Bush. That is a lie spread by Obama.

Obama voted 90% of the time supporting Bush's failed economic policies just like he touts McCain did.

Answer 3

There's always Bob Barr for Republicans upset about McCain's running mate choice.

Answer 4

DEMICAN or REPUBLICRAT ...  I see no difference.  they are all scum bags.  We need to start a constiitutional convention, re-design this government and start over.  And, that is our guaranteed constitutional right.  Maybe its time.  I personally think it is overdue.
