What can we do about this Barnum & Bailey government we have in our country? Any suggestions from you realists out there? Are you as embarrassed as I am?
Quite frankly, it is not going to change anytime soon short of an event similar to the French Revolution . . . . . The psychopaths will not be giving up power easily, and, while most people think that the president, the senate, and congress are running government, I disagree . . . . It is the military and AIPAC, all you have to do to confirm that is look where the money is going. Reversing that would be an easy task
Correction, since I see no edit button . . . . Reversing that would be NO easy task.
Pick the side of our binary US political system that best represents your ideals. Consider running, or help recruit those willing to run.
Participate in meetings and events to become familiar with it’s structure, officers, candidates and ‘platform’ … the entire time making note of where you could best contribute to the effort.. Go into action - and repeat
We all want change, but it don’t come easy ... some, we may never witness.. Politics is a long-game ..but obviously needs your help.

Vote? That is legitimizing them . . . . both parties are corrupt, pro war for profit . . . unless you vote third party, it is simply aiding and abetting it.
When ever has THIRD party changed the government? Let me answer that . . . NEVER.
@THHA when people vote for it, to vote their "consciences," and split the liberal vote, thus giving the rule to the republicans. that changes democracy. we're not a parliamentary system. we don't have coalitions. if the winner is corrupt it's winner-take-all. both parties are not corrupt. the republican party is, as an entity, corrupt; it is a criminal organization.

Education. An educated voter is a (bad) politician's worst enemy. Raise the IQ of the country, and "Make America smart again." I'm interested to hear other's thoughts on strategies to accomplish this.
I agree 100%. The repubs have been working hard for the last 40 years to destroy our education system, and they have pretty much done it.
Register to vote and vote, and not just in presidential elections either, vote in local elections and don't vote for jackasses.
