So please tell me why is it that when the government keeps preaching "diversity" are we still using this archaic two party system?
There is an election for the United States Senate where I live this year. The democratic incumbent, Claire McCaskill has done absolutely nothing to distinguish herself in six years. She has used campaign ads to sell her strong suit as mediocrity; ranking 50th of 100 in votes as rated by some obscure organization.
Her Republican opponent is an idiot who apparently runs his mouth before engaging his brain. His name is Todd Akin and he made the comment back in July that a woman can not get pregnant from a "legitimate rape". WTH?
I won't vote for either of these candidates. Unfortunately the two party system will guarantee one of them victory. Isn't it really time to be diverse and make it easier for other parties to get on the ballot and break up this two party stranglehold?
