    Have, alas, already voted for “the lesser of the two evils,” but I now consider myself divorced from the money-glutted two-party system which has held the electorate hostage to unfettered ambition. I’ve also been so upset at the damage being done to relationships because of hyper-partisanship, I’ve started my own blog, http://www.run-ins.com. If anybody out there has witnessed or suffered through partisan squabbles hurting relationships, please leave your comments (particularly any solutions to the damage) at my blog. Thanks.

    The third party candidates should get together and form an opposition party. Although they disagree on many peripheral issues, they can all agree on the need to change the political process. Let them hold their own primary and convention, front a candidate that offers a real alternative and can hopefully reform the system.

    There is a VERY SIMPLE way to BEAT the “two party” system! Know anyone who would like to help save the world without HAVING TO DO anything more difficult than talking to people? Please help us crowd-source real positive change! Anyone seeing this, please look into it, share it, and spread the word!

    This is important and urgent! We must work together. As many of us as possible, right away. Yes, some will have to work hard, but many are already doing that. Each one person TALKING ABOUT how to save the world makes our work easier and more effective, because it helps gently break down the barriers to understanding which have been intentionally implanted in our societies! The biggest REAL conspiracy out there is the one to convince us there’s NO SUCH THING as a REAL conspiracy which puts us all at risk because it make hiding even the biggest and most sinister of evil plans possible. Now that I’ve said that publicly and some “evil minded” people who didn’t realize it will proably read this, we may want to work quickly. Sorry, but it needed to be said because there’s work to be done.

    Maybe the system should be abolished and maybe we’re better off to repair it, but decisions this huge which will effect so many people in such profound ways should not be left in the hands of the few. WE THE PEOPLE need to have our say one way or another and currently many of us do at least have the right to get a VOTE counted “OFFICIALLY” when an election happens. The problem is that if we are in opposition, whether to the system as a whole, an aspect of how it currently works, or one of the hand picked puppets of the elite that we’re told have any chance of “representing us” in government, we currently lack any way to have our opposition counted unless we convert it into SUPPORT “for the other guy” so that nobody trying to help us ever has a chance to win one of our elections and gain the power to do so at a level where it can be done without destruction having to take place. People are waking up to the fact that we can change all that should be changed if we just manage to get that RIGHT TO SAY NO!

    This is a global movement but the change can start in any country. At the time I’m writing this, it’s election season in the United States of America and political discussions are easy to come by, so please help us throw the #AntiVote tag into as many of them as possible to get people thinking about how to make REAL change happen, peacefully if possible, and how important it is that we stand up and demand the right to voice our opposition to any bad option and to any lack of GOOD choices!

    We’ve got #AntiVote trending on Twitter and it’s under consideration as a topic for the #ThirdPartyDebate to be held in Washington DC on the 5th of November between Jill Stein of the Green Party and Gary Johnson of the Libertarian Party. #NowTHATSaDebate!

    What we need is your input. If you don’t have a Twitter account, at least talk about it elsewhere, but consider signing up for one. It’s super easy to do and you DON’T “have to” connect it to a phone as some people may think. This would help keep the #AntiVote trend growing and allow you to take part in it at that level. Yes there are levels. Hierarchy in society is unavoidable. It happens all around us NATURALLY and the problem is not that it exists but rather that we let it get abused. You can disagree with me if you like, but I’m fighting for your right to do just that so you may want to think carefully about where you want to focus your opposition. It’s healthy to disagree and to listen to each other’s poits of view. Fighting about it is not the BEST way to handle disagreement, but at times it may be the ONLY way. Right now you have an opportunity to help make healthy disagreement heard in a very good way. Please discuss it on FaceBook and GooglePlus, at Occupy gatherings and events, in chat rooms, etc.

    Watch either video, if you would be so kind, and then join the discussion… please. This is SO important and it is also time critical.
