I Hate American Politics

The more I hear about the antics of the two parties in Congress, the more I would like to end political parties altogether. I have thought for years that a group of individuals working with the people could accomplish much more than two mutually obstructive parties with opposing agendas.
I also support strict term limits, these career politicians become completely out of touch.

Maybe you would prefer a Dictator.

@BobbieTNot at all, though we seem to be already going in that direction. I would prefer leaders selected from the populace, that actually have a clue what's going on outside the beltway, and actually listen to the people, making decisions not for parties or only themselves, but by what would work the best for all people involved.

@BobbieT pseudo-democracy is pretty much the same thing. in a way, leadership [i]is[/i] dictatorship, with shallow gestures of democracy to keep the masses calm.
