Well, congratulations, we do have three parties, the Repubs, the very feeeewwww moderate Demonicrats and the Commies. The olld Demonicratic party is giving way to the Commies and stupid people are liking it.

I would hope you understood my general point, O-Baba.
I would like to see the Libertarian Party and American Independent Party both viable (which is not the case today) and an overhauled Democratic Party (which is highly unlikely).
There is enough corruption and partisanship with two dominant parties. If we get to the point that, say, the Republicans dominate (which could happen) ... that would concern me. A multi-party society could minimize my concerns.
But it's not going to happen.

"I would like to see the Libertarian Party and American Independent Party both viable (which is not the case today) and an overhauled Democratic Party (which is highly unlikely)."
Those two parties are like gnats, not really doing any harm to the Repubs or Demonicratic parties. They only take away votes but are not really viable parties that one can be afraid of. The trouble is that they always get people that are nuts like the guy from NM whose name I can't remember...in other words, jokes.
Now, these Commies that are running now are really viable as some have already been elected, Imadummi, Aoc, Bernie boy, maybe Splatner and is giving the real Demonicrats a run,(scare is a better word) for their money.
