It is always easy for the party in the minority to complain about the other party. The facts are the economy is better than it has been in years and the staggering imbalance in trade is the result of policies set by the Democrats under Clinton. The Bush administration has put more into education than Clinton ever did and although the welfare programs have undergone radical changes the function of government is not to give everyone a guaranteed income just a chance to work and make a better life. Having to improve your skills and earning ability is something generations have done since the founding of civilization. The weak are demeaned and forced to improve or perish. That is not necessarily right but neither is letting people breed like roaches and just sit around.
You can't ship the unskilled jobs overseas and expect the untrained masses to do well. Our poor efficiency in schooling has turned our labor force into a real unemployable group. Blame the poverty on two things, Poor training and lack of ambition. Instead of saying we can't our ancestors said we will.

Frankly neither party or either party can turn the country around but only if the people get together and tell the politicians what to do. You people leave it up to special interests and the organized parties. I have no idea how many times I have heard from some one that they don't get into politics and they never vote because :their all the same" and then fill my ear with the mistakes Washington is making. Where I come from if you don't play the game you don't have any effect on the outcome and you really have no right to ***** about what's happening.

The only person(s) who can get the country on the right track would be a person(s) having no vested interest in its success or failure. Democrats and Republicans will continue to be unsucessful as they have already obtained at least enough personal interest to identify with an already established political party.

Neither. Most Americans are not strictly Democratic or Republican. We are being pulled to sides that we're not on. The typical American is moderate and we need a group to represent that. We also need more than just two political parties. What about the people who don't fall under either, such as myself. There is independent, but has an independent canidate ever won presidency? How many members of congress are independent? The founding fathers had expected people to have more than two choices.

I think the biggest issue is being able to reach a concensus among ourselves on priorities. The parties actually often take away from our ability to do that. If people at large unite on something meaningful and carry it through, I think that will be the right track.

Republicans have controlled Congress for a long time and have had their own as president for 5 of the last 8 terms. Let's throw the bums out!

What is the right track? Most governments are only good at the wrong track because they are directed by minorities with an agenda that does not suit the country.

A biased question since you obviously think we are on the wrong track.

Republicans, lowering taxes has shown to stimulate the economy and increase government revenues. Demcrats have shown since at least carter and clinton that they cannot be trusted with our national defense.
Republicans, unlike democrats, want to empower the voters by relaxing and removing regulations and obstacles that inhibit economic growth. In all these regards, carter and clinton were the worst presidents in US history.
