How can we break the stranglehold the two parties have on the political process?

Answer 1

That's a good question. Add a few more parties to the mix and ensure they stay in to the very end. Make it be more than the red and the blue.

Answer 2

You can't. It is set too deeply with each side having supporters funding them based on their beliefs and values. Big corporations and Business Giants would have to swing and support a third party to get them elected. Unfortunately, Politics has become a $$$$$$ game.

Answer 3

Public funding for elections, jail sentences for trying to lobby congress people, minimum wage for public service, no more health care at the expense of us taxpayers and strict term limits. Two four year terms for Senators, four two year terms for Congressmen. If the wealthy of this country really want to perform public service, these conditions should not inhibit them at all.

Answer 4

Tough one. We need to change campaign finance. Probably need to create a law forcing two parties to take 33% of their funds into a common pot to establish a third party. All of this is driven by money and power, and if the third part doesn't have enough of them or enough compelling ideas, then forget it. There have been third parties formed in our history that were successful, but they were driven by powerful men and their ideas.

Answer 5

Get the right candidate with the right platform. It happened once before and the third party candidate won.

Answer 6

Get enough people in each state to join your party and pay each state their registration fee.


But then I doubt that you really wanted the truth.

Answer 7

maybe if we forced people to actually realize who they are voting for by eliminating straight party voting....on second thought then we might only have about 20 people actually voting

Answer 8

bring back the Whig party

Answer 9

Put a VIABLE candidate in the third party...The space cadets just don't do it anymore.

Answer 10

quit allowing people who don't work hard to vote.
