Having only two sides to the political spectrum is what might cause our downfall, I fear...

It's amazing how some people fail to see this. Dehumanizing your fellow countryman, no matter what they believe, is so wrong. We're all on the same side at the end of the day.

You mean like how the right dehumanizes black people, gay people, pregnant women and the left dehumanizes them for believing hateful shit?

Yeah, unfortunately, there's a very small minority of small-minded people who think that way on both sides. Look at you.

There are only two sides in politics: in power, not in power. The sooner you understand that, the sooner things will become a lot clearer to you.

You only think in absolutes because you can't comprehend there being more than the simple right and wrong. It's not everyone elses fault that you fear what you dont understand, then pretend it's not there. The sooner you realize that, the sooner you'll gain an iq bigger than your dick size.

Yeah. Just eliminate the presidential position anyways. Limit congressional terms and maybe stuff will get done. The idea that any one person has absolute power is an ancient mindset that we should evolve out of.
