Writes Jay Stephenson:

Trump’s spokesperson got laid into this week for blaming Obama for the death of the Khan family’s son in Iraq during Bush’s tenure. The real reason why she said it, I believe, is because after the campaign fired Cory Lewandowski and influenced Trump to pick a neocon as a VP, a decision was made not to attack Bush anymore. So what can Trump do as he’s getting hammered by Bush-era cronies this week given this newstrategy? Basically nothing. The right way to attack is to blame Bush/Clinton/Obama, but he has to stick with cliché GOP talking points that they’ve been using ever since Obama took office. It’s a losing strategy.

Amazing, isn't it?

It's why the founders were so adamantly opposed to political parties. (As well as jews, muslims, and other suspect groups.)

I've been pushing for "Approval" voting as a superior vote system. With this system, people can vote for as many candidates as they want. The candidate getting the most votes wins.

It occurred to me much more recently that with Approval voting, political parties can be done away with. Primaries become obsolete, because there's no reason to limit the ballot to one candidate per party at the general election.

Some areas have None of the Above. If None of the Above scores 50%, then they have another election without the previous candidates.

While it sounds good in theory to do away with the 2 party system by bringing in "Approval" voting or other facsimile systems instead, theory doesn't always translate into better outcomes in the real world.

For example in California, the Demrats pushed for and won Prop. 14 which implemented a "Non- partisan blanket primary" voting system and it stinks. Now we have 2 Demrat politicians running against each other in many elections. Eliminating the 2 party system and giving lots of choices to the electorate assumes that voters are open minded and are intelligent enough to make educated choices based on platforms; that they're not idealogues. But in the USA - especially in states like CA. where you have so many Third World naturalized socialist voters and limousine liberals and large college campuses with young Utopian brain- washed voters etc etc, all it means is that there is no choice for what's left as candidates in the 2nd round run off. Be careful not to throw out the baby with the bath water.
