if trump can get elected POTUS, then comrade bernie sanders can get elected POTUS. that's scary! (lowering the voting age makes it even more scary. give them candy, and they'll vote for ANYONE!)
what would be worse than giving up our freedom to government? a government "of the government, by the government and for the government"?
had enough?
to fix our dysfunctional government is simple and easy--stop voting for republican and democratic party candidates, including incumbents.

voting for a republican or a democrat is a vote for their party.

even with their billion dollar donors, if voters don't vote for republicans and democrats, then the republican and democratic parties will shrivel up and die.
once the republican and democratic parties are gone, and lobbyists are rendered powerless, then much-needed changes to the constitution can be made--like "no taxation without representation", a.k.a. powerful national politicians that 99+ percent of american voters didn't vote for (e.g., pelosi, mcconnell, republican and democratic party bosses, etc.).
in the next election--national, state or local--vote for your local (state/county) representatives. hopefully, some day, when the republican party, the democratic party, antiquated party rules and lobbyists are gone, and the constitution has been amended, then we'll ALL be able to vote for our national leaders.
nothing will be better for our country.

the same goes for the news media--stop patronizing biased news media that lobby for the republican and democratic parties instead of reporting the news factually and truthfully. they'll go out of business. nothing will be better for the USA.
