Can't we just vote in someone completely new for once.

The way the US democracy works, attempting this would be too dangerous i.e. either all your fellow voters agree with you or you lose. How sure are you about winning this?

  1. Not a democracy... It's a constitutional federal republic. There's a difference.
  2. If I vote like everyone else then there's no point in voting at all, nothing will ever change either way.
  3. It's not about being sure, it's about not voting for the same people who we know are corrupt or incompetent.

I just want a different political party to get on the ballet at least once, at this point I don't even care which one. I'm just sick and tired of this bullshit.

If you so easily dismiss democracy you can easily dismiss the constitution also. Soon there will be no republic either.
