Considering a switch to independent is something I have thought about for a while. The way the Party establishment has forced Hillary on us and tried everything in their power to keep any competitor hidden away has been anything but democratic. They promote someone who is for war, fracking, free trade, and tax evasion and tell us she is the best option. I say bullshit.

I agree that a lot of people are tired of the party shitting on us and trying to ridicule us for our beliefs.
