Reply #4: I think we've seen in this country that the one party system doesn't work. [View All]

The Dem party is already pretty much "disappeared"
(with the rare exception of a hero like Wellstone or a Kucinich).

So if people are clinging to an existing party to take on the neocons
in this country, they're dreaming.

'Merkans are trained not to be independent thinkers, in fact
we're intentionally poorly educated (e.g., not tought geography
or history, and given bogus/slanted textbooks). So one good
method of dissent is merely learning the very subject denied
us by public education!

At the very least it's a good first step.

"Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it."
-George Santayana

"(The government) plays off (Americans') relative innocence, or
ignorance to be more precise. This is probably why geography has not
really been taught since World War II -- to keep people in the dark
as to where we are blowing things up. Because Enron wants to blow
them up. Or Unocal, the great pipeline company, wants a war going
some place."
-Gore Vidal
