Bread & Circuses.

You've finally realized this is yet another circus, what are you going to do differently?

(And remember, this was from the hope & change guy in favor of transparency who now "personally signs off" (his words) on drone strikes on American citizens, extended & expanded the PATRIOT Act, and made indefinite detention an actual law.)

As long as you have an electoral system that erects such high barriers to entry for 3rd parties, there will not be adequate competition and the customers (citizens) will suffer.

I remember Bill Maher being very critic of Obama, then completely switching into full Democrats-must-win mode because the Republicains were way worse =/

Is it not possible to realize the lesser of two evils while still calling out the lesser evil on its faults?
