i was so hoping for a curve ball to be thrown during the roll call at the dnc last night. I think Bernie may have been hoping as well. But, it's official, the two major players are shit and shit.

really?I think Trump is going to win this election.
really?
did he touch you wrong?
honestly, the 3rd option bullshit that been propagating online is crap. been seeing a lot of shit of "we have the numbers to elect a 3rd party." they cite that like 60+ percentage of the country doesnt support the left or right but they also assume that the people that hate the two big parties actually support one of the other choices by a large percentage. if that percentage of undecided voters we split between genuinely undecided, green party, and independent then they would still have less than the others. plus, a lot of those others are just as extreme as the current choices.
I hate our options, but part of me is glad that we only have a two party system. sure, it sucks and the players are terrible but it also forces a majority to happen. i'd rather have an election that 51% of voters vote one way than wind up with a president that only 20 ish percentage of voters elected.
notice i said voters, not just the population. elections would be a lot more interesting if everyone that was eligible to vote actually voted.
