Timco 2016?
It's pretty sad when of the three people running one of the left is a self proclaimed socialist hates the free market and will raise middle class taxes, the other is extremely Hawkish and is begging for WW3... Also a criminal. Then the right has Andrew Jackson round 2 full of populism, walking all over the constitution, and tariffs... Freakin tariffs.
The two party system is pretty broken and I'll be voting third party this year.

Abraham Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt were both third party candidates, both are on Rushmore now. Now Jefferson is my favorite on the monument but never discount a third party. Trump and Hillary both have an over 50% disproval rating, it's the perfect storm!

Who's your third party candidate? Ross Perot? Ralph Nader? There's no one in this race that can truly claim they fit the independent bill. The independent candidates never hold enough of a following to actually win which is why we havent seen one for quite some time.Trump would have been the closest to doing it but the Republican establishment bumbled his anti trump movement and here we are...
While I don't like the idea of trump, I hate the idea of Hillary. South Park put it best. It's always between a dousche and a turd. Pick one. There are plenty of places where citizens have no voice.
On that note, the idiot politicians who claim they aren't voting disgust me. What a slap in the face to every vet who fought for our right to vote and the same system that got their worthless a $$es elected in the first place.

Worst case scenario would be to not vote at all. But I can't check a box beside a protectionist lol. I will most defiantly be showing up to vote for all the local elections, expect the house to shift around a lot due to low voter turnout among traditional conservatives that won't show up due to lack of representation.
If the establishment pulls out Romney or even more electable someone like Nikki Haley as a third party which could happen, they will have my vote. Otherwise I am going libertarian as I agree with them most on issues outside of pot anyways.

That simple world is long gone. Trump is the closest thing you'll get to a third party. I actually expect him to switch after he's elected. I'll be glad.
