Rise of the Third Political Party

As the two-headed political monster lifts it's ugly head, more people are catching a glimpse of its hideous body. It's been a long time coming, but we are peering through the smokescreen and finally coming to realize the political left and right are working together towards the same ultimate goal. As more and more people wake up to the republicratic monster, we'll see the eventual rise of a third political party. Until then, beware the Republicat.

Somehow the majority of Americans continue to vote along strict party lines, regardless of a candidates actual character, policies and political history. We all know plenty of people who go to the polls and just look for a D or R next to a candidates name. American politics are really just a distraction, a circus of procrastination, stalling and watered down policy making. The polarizing talking points are meant to keep us from seeing the real policy changes being slipped by us, while we are distracted by media hype and false narrative. I warned my peers that the Obama administration would continue or expand many of the same policies of the Bush administration, but they saw Change and Hope as a real possibility. The police state is growing, the dollar is rapidly loosing value, the economy is collapsing, our fundamental rights are under attack, the constitution is continually being violated, we are being spied on, we are being dumbed down, we are being stolen from and we keep thinking that maybe next president can fix things. Everything we know is wrong, these days a new president picks up where the last president left off. There is a long-term plan behind, what appears to us, to be complete madness. The approach and rhetoric may be different, but the end results remain the same.

Surprisingly, this is something that has helped with the rise of a few strong third party options, like the Libertarian Party and the Progressive Party. Other political forces, like the Tea Party and the Constitution Party, have also been gaining support and of course there is always the Independent, whatever that means. Unfortunately, any threat to the status qou seems to be quickly hi-jacked and turned into controlled opposition. Just look at what Sarah Palin has done to the Tea Party movement and don't forget that they have found funding and support by Koch Industries.

 We have recently seen some strong support towards ending the Federal Reserve or at least opening it up to government oversight and auditing. More people are becoming aware of domestic surveillance and want government out of their private lives. People are becoming more aware that our national debt can't continue to increase at such an enormous rate without risking the security of the nation. A global political awakening is underway. Unfortunately, there is a strong divide among third party political groups, so they aren't quite up to challenging the two-party system yet. The mainstream media paints third party politics as radical and extremist, in an attempt to maintain the current, corrupt political system.

For a real third party option to become viable, these different movements need to agree on some basic policies and band together to enter the mainstream political system. I think that it is highly unlikely that any of these parties can breach the two-party club without doing so. Although, what I'd really like to see is the elimination of party based politics altogether. How about having no political parties and voting for candidates based on their policies and character instead of what gang they belong to, or is that "too dangerous?" I say, let's throw out all the social policy issues and focus on priorities; like the Federal Reserve, the Fiat Money system, the National Debt, the Military Budget and the Banking Cartel. After we take our economic system back from those that are robbing us blind, we could potentially have the resources necessary to fight other important battles. Everyone has the right to have their own social policy opinions and I'm sure we will be arguing about those so-called "problems" for a long time, but for now let's take care of the criminals who are looting the country, before we have nothing left.
