"There are plenty of doctors and scientists who also vote GOP. But as an institution, the Republican Party of today is determined to subvert the progress of science, to subordinate it to the interest of shareholders instead of the brilliance of researchers." - Jan Wessnitzer

This is, IMHO, part of the problem with a two-party system (at least effectively)... it's black-and-white (no pun intended)... in NL you have much more choice, causing all parties to be much more balanced. But the US voting system just favors a two-party system, and that has to be broken down first, before the US can move forward again (IMHO). - Egon Willighagen

And to think that the British people had the chance to vote against 'first past the post'....... Will we be next? - Jan Wessnitzer
