I read an article in the Saturday NYT about the disarray in the DNC and their money problems. I'll be honest with you. I think the American people are moving on from parties. I think most American voters are independent. If they are registered for a party it is only so they can vote in a primary which ought to be open anyway. Like Karine Jean-Pierre, I recently changed my party registration to independent non-affiliated in Oregon. I'll never vote for someone in a party again.
Most voters want policies somewhere in between the extreme party platforms of either party. They'd rather vote for independent candidates who are honest and have integrity who can pursue policies that are right for the whole country and not just further the power of the parties. Why should we have to vote for the better of two evils?
It just doesn't make sense for us to vote for parties that try to put in place policies that just the extreme wings of the parties want. We want common sense ideas that can be implemented in a reasonable length of time. We want laws that can be written in a few pages that are fair for everyone, and not 2,000 page bills that have as many loopholes as a sieve.
Some people are worried about Artificial Intelligence becoming self-aware and taking over things. But can it be any worse than now with do-nothing politicians?
Let's put the parties out to pasture. Vote for independent candidates.
