Haha! Well I like how you end your statement with something you completely made up extrapolated from my lack of belief in the system.

I know for 100% certain that you haven't had any success in competitive politics because you obviously have no idea how to motivate or influence people with whom you disagree.

Your attitude is just complacency at this point. Life in the United States has been getting worse for at least a couple of decades. We've played the hold your nose and vote game over and over and each time we get the exact same prize. I'm going to assume you're calling me names because you're very upset with the lack of enthusiasm for the system right now. If I were you I'd redirect that energy towards topeling the two party system because nothing will ever change when we have a virtual duopoly on power. Push for ranked choice voting, push for a system where voting on a third option doesn't benefit the candidate with opposite views. That's a system where we can have real change but your solution won't get us there because the powerful parties would never willingly relinquish control even if they knew it was for the better good.
