For some time, we here at the times have pointed out that the election this time, at the very least, is meaningless as actually boycotting it is a vote in itself. Does it make any difference if no-one knows? Well, they don't care what you voted for, just so long as you seemed to be duped into thinking that this system makes any sense.
Now certainly there are some subtle differences between the two parties. For example, a Democratic President is almost certain to make better judicial appointments than a Republican one. No Democrat would have nominated Scalia or Thomas, or even Bork (remember that fiasco?), but then there will never be another Douglas appointed either.
So far as they are concerned, you are not important at all. Nor do I see a third party possible. Ross Perot scared the two parties out of their minds and they conspired to make sure that such a thing never happened again. Furthermore, we have no idea as to what actually happened to him, but they certainly took steps to ensure that Mr. Perot never opened his mouth again. And he was actually a certified capitalist beyond any doubts.
Do we see any solution? Yes, and the first step is to boycott these stupid elections as a sham. The next step will emerge. Occupy Wall Street was an encouraging start, but it was only an indication, a very small one, of the sort of thing that needs to be done. The first thing, however, is to boycott.
Mort Sahl is actually alive, in case there was any doubt, and he supplies a number of points about the Democratic Party. Naturally, there is little point in even thinking about the Republican Party. In Shakespeare's words, "That way madness lies...."
