In reply to the discussion: Tulsi Gabbard...wow [View all]myohmy2
(3,162 posts)...in a parliamentary system the different political factions form parties to battle it out on a national stage, have an election then coalesce AFTER to take power...
...in our system the different political factions gather under either the Democratic or Republican banner, battle it out and come together respectively BEFORE a national election...
...right now, there is no viable 3rd party path to national office...so when a Big Tent candidate throws a political hand grenade under their Big Tent and blows it up BEFORE a national election, it makes it difficult or impossible for all the other factions to unify and compete in the upcoming national election...
...and we shouldn't blame the sins of the 'daughter' on the 'father'...
...happily...
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
