The imminent backlash of the Democratic Left.

[A Simple Game]

665. Yes I voted for someone picked by a party, the party was Working Family instead of

the Democratic party. I see a difference and if he got more votes on a third party line than the Democratic party line, so would President Obama. No one wants to answer that question. Different parties have different platforms meaning different expectations for the candidate they endorse. If President Obama got seven figure votes on a third party line you can bet someone would let him know. Someone would let the whole world know. And if more votes were cast on that line, at least in New York, it would replace the Democratic party on the top of the ballot.

I do know that when most are speaking about third party they don't normally mean someone also running as a Democrat, I just like pointing out that, at least in many places, often there are options even for the same candidate.

You only vote for two or three candidates on the national level in any given year, it doesn't take long to educate yourself on the candidates from all parties. Sadly I saw no one better, that I could tell, than President Obama in both Presidential elections. We as a country do not encourage our best to run for political office.
