It has long been the case that the political process in America has been monopolized by a two-party system consisting of Democrats and Republicans. These two behemoths are dominant and well-entrenched to the extent that would-be challengers to their stranglehold are met with insurmountable barriers and obstacles.
In most of the individual American states, draconian ballot access laws make it all but impossible for upstart challengers to even remotely approach being able to compete on a level playing field. Of great significance, as well, is the fact that the dominant, subsidized media functions as a fully complicit party to the unscrupulous monopoly in question.
A History of Failure and Ineffectiveness
With few and scattered exceptions, alternative party or independent political efforts or candidacies have achieved little to no measurable success. To say that the deck is stacked against any and all potential challengers is the epitome of an understatement. The outgrowth of this unfortunate reality has been a generalized consensus that political organization apart from the structure of the two-party system is nothing more than a waste of time and resources.
The ostensible logic underpinning this sentiment emphasizes that effort and money are better invested attempting to influence the dominant party structures in the direction of greater truth and relevance to the issues that pertain to our survival and well-being.
The Right Side of History
History makes plain that genuine nationhood is predicated on commonality of ancestry and culture. Our beloved America is perilously close to having moved beyond the point of no return concerning our indifference toward and rejection of such paramount truth. Rest assured, however, that history will ultimately vindicate and validate those who dare to make a bold and courageous stand for non-negotiable truth and principle.
