When it comes voting time, being a Republican or a Democrat is an AUTOMATIC disqualification as far as I'm concerned. Yeah.. I know... only Reps or Dems will win. Well we all know who's fault that is. I think that it might be time to put “None of the Above” back on the voting ballots.

There is no credibility in either party....we need, no we need to demand a new party. At least it would start out clean. Perhaps term limits would help. Definitely no more electoral voting, should be popular vote. Good grief so much to clean up, so little time or willingness.
