It sucks, but you feel cleaner after you vote. More people need to get on board and break the current 1 party system we have. I firmly believe that both parties are the same basic entities - they have different faces for marketing. They want they and theirs to get rich at tax payer expense.

Individual candidates are hit and miss. The Libertarian Party is, well…

Follow Amash on twitter, he is the man. Very much lines up with a lot of disaffected republicans who were disgusted by what has played out over the last 6 years. If he runs, he has my vote automatically.

May 12, 20223 yr I think it's a party requirement to have terrible bangs before you're allowed to join, so best get on that. I don't make the rules:

You think the roofing sales guys get an ear full. couple years ago my neighbor told me the jahovahs witnesses were coming around the neighborhood so i took my shirt off, grabbed a keystone and sat on my patio listening to hank III waiting for them to come talk. they never stopped at my house......

More than half of them seem to just be Trumpbots who don't like Mitch McConnel so they don't identify as republicans. When I started consistently hearing things like "Donald Trump is the most libertarian president ever!", I tuned out and unfollowed. They see the things they want to see and ignore everything else (like all of his authoritarianism). I stopped following most of the libertarian groups on social media but "The Skeptical Libertarian" is still a good follow https://www.facebook.com/SkepticalLibertarian/ Unsurprisingly he gets called a "liberal" and a "leftist" all the time.
