The thing is only the major two parties have alternately ruled this country since the fall of dictatorship in 1974. Both have ruined this small piece of land, just look at our economy now!

Americans need to be involved at the lowest level: city council, school board, tax collector etc. Those are proving grounds for politicians before they work their way up to higher office. Unfortunately, the vast majority of people do not vote in local elections.
