(20,453 posts)I believe what we must do after reforming campaign finance should include a reform of party formation. I'm pretty sure the same laws that make it SO HARD during the primaries to vote in delegates should be changed at the state level.
SO much has been done to prohibit any new challenge to the so called 2 party system, that we don't realize these things until we go out to get on the ballot with something as simple as Benie Sanders delegates.
One woman, One man from each district in PA can run for delegate in PA, and yet, the districts are so carved up and there is so much territory to cover when gathering 250 signatures in the coldest part of the year.
How did we get there? Better question is WHY did it come to this? The only way you find out about these things is when you decide that you need a delegate for a candidate. The same rules prohibit states from the right to form additional political parties. WE SHOULD HAVE HAD A GREEN PARTY IN ALL 50 STATES BY THIS TIME. Instead, we have more barriers to that challenge.
How'd that happen? Better question is WHY. She's why. Knowledge is prohibited the same on its way to the potential voter.
