“There are some very real differences between the two parties, but most of these people you are asking can see past those differences to the socialist nature of both parties, and they’re not explaining themselves well because they don’t realize that you don’t know what they know.<\/p>\n
“One party is the champion of the working class, the ‘People’s Party”, in favor of welfare for the poor \u2013 very socialist in nature, based upon the teachings of Karl Marx.\u00a0 You have them in your country.\u00a0 Their mantra is, ‘Workers of the world, unite!’\u00a0 They want to reduce or eliminate borders, save the whales, and reduce national power in favor of One World Government.\u00a0 These socialists call themselves ‘Democrats’.<\/p>\n
“The other party is the champion of the commercial class, Capitalism, private property, and in favor of welfare for corporations and businesses of every type.\u00a0 They want to strengthen the national government, seal off the borders to illegal immigration, to increase our military power and impose American “peace” upon the world.\u00a0 They favor partnership between government and business, just like the National Socialists of Germany and the Fascists of Italy.\u00a0 These socialists call themselves ‘Republicans’. <\/p>\n
“So the American voter today has to choose between an International Socialist and a National Socialist.\u00a0 (A Communist and a Nazi.)\u00a0 And these people you are talking to today are not falling for that choice.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
A light went on in his eyes, and I had to suppress a laugh when he said, “Ahhh, so!”\u00a0 (Generalities again.)\u00a0 I do wish I could have seen how much of that made it to the screen in Tokyo.\u00a0 Probably not much.\u00a0 They probably cut my 15 seconds of fame as soon as they saw it, because I have this sneaking suspicion that their own political parties run along similar lines, and if there’s one thing we don’t do, it is to educate the voters to what is being done to them.<\/p>\n
Is this to say that every Democrat is a Communist and every Republican a Nazi?\u00a0 Heavens, no!\u00a0 There are lots of conservative Republicans and even a few conservative Democrats.\u00a0 There are even one or two “constitutionalists” who really understand what they’re about.\u00a0 But the power elites who control the party are not usually the faces you see running for office.\u00a0 Like chess pieces on a board, almost no politician is able to make his own moves without approval from on high.<\/p>\n
Idealistic newcomers to politics think they can run for office and win, without the help, or the knowledge of the party bosses.\u00a0 Very few of them win, and when they do, it’s usually a fluke \u2013 an incumbent dies, or maybe there’s a shift in the demographics, etc.\u00a0 Sometimes the newcomer has enough money to blow out the county or district party bosses.\u00a0 <\/p>\n
These “mavericks” are real pests to the party bosses.\u00a0 They hate them with a passion, more than they hate their enemies across party lines.\u00a0 Ron Paul (R) is an example of this type of candidate.\u00a0 James Traficant (D) was another.\u00a0 Sonny Bono (R) was another.\u00a0 Steve Stockman (R) is another.\u00a0 Men who stand on principles instead of bowing and scraping to the party bosses are men who must be sabotaged, one way or another, and murder is not out of the question.<\/p>\n

In politics, words have meaning, but not like they do in the real world.\u00a0 They are loaded with symbolism and with a desire to achieve perception over reality.\u00a0 By pitting one class against another, voters are whipsawed into voting for “the lesser of two evils” over and over again, just like Charlie Brown trying to kick that football.\u00a0 <\/p>\n
Voters seem to be incapable of realizing that in order to change the system, they are going to have to quit being moved like a mob of sheep with the scare tactic that, if they don’t, they will be the reason that “the bad guys” win.\u00a0 The problem is that “the good guys” are really no better than “the bad guys”.\u00a0 They just smell better.<\/p>\n
Becoming an Independent Voter may not mean your next election ballot looks a lot difference, but it will mean that you will quit voting straight party ticket (which ought to be a crime), that you will vote for those candidates you know deserve your vote, because you have done your research.\u00a0 <\/p>\n
I could easily support a law that would not allow any voter to vote for or against a candidate whose name they do not recognize, and cannot explain to the registrar what they stand for, but then, I am an incurable idealist.\u00a0 <\/p>\n
I could easily support a law forbidding government employees from voting at all, in elections that affect their jobs and incomes.\u00a0 Conflict of interest.\u00a0 A school teacher should not be allowed to vote for school board.\u00a0 A mailman should not be allowed to vote for Congress.\u00a0 A city cop should not be allowed to vote for mayor.\u00a0 Etc.<\/p>\n
When you distill it down, Politic Parties are the whores of the body politic, and the party bosses are pimps.\u00a0 And voters are the “Johns”.\u00a0 If you let them own your vote, then you are not an independent voter, you are a sucker.\u00a0 <\/p>\n
When you vote, learn the issues.\u00a0 Learn the candidates, on both sides.\u00a0 And only vote for those where you can cast an informed vote, whether for or against.\u00a0 (An uninformed vote is worse than no vote at all.)\u00a0 <\/p>\n
Now.\u00a0 We’re down to it.\u00a0 Want to make your vote count?\u00a0 Want to make a difference?\u00a0 If you only know three good candidates, regardless of the offices, then call a few friends and motivate them to vote for those candidates.\u00a0 (In the process, you are going to find that some of them also know of one or two candidates, so your list may grow.)\u00a0 When ten of you vote as a bloc you will have just created your own independence movement away from party politics and toward electing men and women of conscience and principle.\u00a0 <\/p>\n
But it won’t happen until you stop voting for party hacks and accepting what the party bosses give you.\u00a0 Start electing an Independent here and there and watch the parties suddenly start finding their principles again!<\/p>\n
