folks act with glee as if there is a real clear cut choice between the 2 parties, but there isn't
somebody wrote in another thread that the 2 parties should do a corporate merger, and that's spot on
we live in a bizarro world where someone like Trump actually has some less corporate friendly policies than the Democratic front-runner
nothing is going to change, im done with this shit
the only positive is i see a Progressive "Tea Party" coming real soon...people are sick and tired of the illusion of choice

Take all that together and you come away with pretty clear evidence that over the course of the Democratic primary young voters have become more attached to progressive politics and the Democratic party. One read of this is that the primary process itself - as divisive as it has sometimes seemed - has deepened young voters' identification with the Democratic party.

Do you want to criminalize abortion?
Do you want the minimum wage and taxes on the rich to be lower?
Do you want to get rid of Obamacare?
Do you believe global warming is a myth?
Is there any issue where the GOP and the Dems aren't hugely different?
