Re: USA no longer equipped to practice democracy Stop!....
Far left, Far right... STOP!
There are more than "two" sides to everything, many many more. Republican - Democract. Left - Right. Socialist - Capatilist. Choice - Life. Conservative - Liberal. STOP! We need MORE choice, stop playing into the establishment where only two sides exist. If you have multiple opponents, you have to win yourself. If you only have one opponent, you don't have to win, they just have to lose.
IF YOU ONLY HAVE ONE OPPONENT, YOU DON'T HAVE TO WIN VOTES, YOU JUST HAVE TO NOT LOSE. Demoralizing the opponents voter base is strategy #1, not convincing people you will serve them as a representative.
If you can't see the difference, learn. Stop playing into the polarization. Both Democrats and Republicans want one opponent only. Force them to have more so that we get more topics. Haven't you noticed how much more in-depth primaries usually are? With 4-5 candidates actually giving views, projections, ideas, background, "plans". Then the real election comes and it turns into "My opponent was on top of a hooker last night and was looking at your daughter this morning".
