Do you think that our so-called "Two Party System" of politics is something our founders had in mind? Of course it isn't. This system is not about making sure both liberals and conservatives have their voice in government, thus giving everyone a voice. It's about convincing us that we, the people, have only two voices - either liberal or conservative. In reality though, every important issue out there can get multiple points of view depending on who you ask and how informed they are.
The Two Party System (TPS) is about controlling elections! It is a strategy (one of many) by the elite to make sure they retain power over the people. This TPS helps the political elite control in a big way who can get elected by marginalizing everyone outside their power structure, even if these other candidates are better qualified than the TPS candidates. And since they do control the power in government, they have rigged the system with rules and regulations that prevent candidates from other parties in having a fair chance to get on the ballot.
But who are these people who have assumed power over the rest of us? Basically, they are the people who control the economy - the flow of money. Do you think it is the President? No. He (or possibly she) is just a puppet of these people, as are those in Congress. And the corporate media (now controlled by the same people) tells us only about the players in their scheme. The candidates who won't play are ignored in the media; this prevents these candidates from gaining any significant public support. The AMERICA: Freedom to Fascism movie identified these stealth rulers as the private bankers in the Federal Reserve System. So whomever we elect will also be controlled by this corrupt system, there is no way around it.
No citizen wants to recognize that they are surrounded by tyranny, especially if it appears they are free in their daily activities. But only by becoming aware of their reality can the people become truly free. And becoming aware requires effort, especially when we do not have mass media that is responsible to us. Thank God for the growing alternative media out there.
Once we have broken out of our stupor from mass media propaganda, what can we do to permanently re-establish our freedom? Whatever we decide to do, it is going to take a massive effort of at least tens of millions of us on a single-minded, well thought out goal. We must act in unison massively to be noticed. As it stands today, we are splintered by many efforts going in different directions. This is a result of confusion from the information we get through the media. Propagandists have also filled the Internet with mountains of websites issuing conflicting stories and misinformation. Many of our good efforts in activism are growing in strength, but they must join to succeed.
There is a reason why Al Gore did not challenge the fraudulent election results in 2000. It is the same reason John Kerry didn't challenge the results in 2004. If either did, they would be President. But since they were functioning within the boundaries set by the controllers discussed above, they dared not challenge. A political challenge of this sort would have stirred up the population to a level that they may have possible learned too much about our corrupt political system. Good information protects democracy.
