It's for that reason I'm almost hoping Trump gets elected without an official party nomination. It would set a new precedence that others could follow. It also might carry the potential to destroy the stranglehold our two party system has.

I will be joining my Canadian friends as a resident, just 20 minutes away, if Trump is elected.

If Hillary gets the nomination, one thing is certain - the US is not a Constitutional Republic by any means but is almost the dictionary definition of a dynastic oligarchy.
and at that point would be the appropriate time to action the 2nd amendment, and take America back.
But - iphone, X-factor, Kardashian-factor and the 50% off sale at the Mall will ensure that never happens.
Nero fiddled whilst Rome burned.
Would be the same if Jeb Bush gets it- worse.
And this is more the problem:
"Oh yeah? My side may be corrupt, but so is yours and worse!"
Look - Corruption is corruption. Just because one person is democrat doesn't make their corruption somehow "less corrupt" than the republican corruption. It's bad no matter who does it and shouldn't be tolerated.

"Sides, sides, everywhere a side. Break my interest and killing my mind...."
Sides are the problem. People have to "WIN". While the sides keep winning and losing the people continually lose. I've voted Liberal, NDP(although when I was young) and Conservative. I HATE the leader of my party. I LOVE my Conservitive MP. I think he should be running the party. Here's where you guys have it better. If I vote for my MP that's a vote for my PM(I don't want that). You guys separate the leader from the party. We can't.

We've got an election in Oct. If Harper gets back with a majority you may want to rethink that.

I do wonder if this is also a novel excuse by Hillary to avoid any democrat candidate debates where embarrassing questions and challenges to her might surely arise:
'I don't have to debate---I already won.'

Well she could just go the Turmp route and insult the prompter when the tough question is asked.
And then go off on some rant that has nothing to do with the question.

If this is actually true...
Does anyone think Bernie Sanders should run third party?
Yes, he should. He should have the balls to do what Paul never did.
But wouldn't a Sanders' third-party run, effectively divide the Democrat vote?
