5. Is this a neccessary post?
I'm still not getting your point in posting it. I have heard some very persuasive comments on tearing down the seriously broken D and R parties and introducing an actual "for the people" government. Some people are getting tired of the game. :)

6. I consider them enemies, and in /The Art of War/ it says to know your enemy.

7. I think you need to take a break.
I really, really do. I consider differing opinions an opportunity to learn, and to educate in return. If you have gotten to the point where you can't welcome debate...well then...it's time for a break. Try it. :)

9. Why would I?
Even if I were convincing people to vote third party, I would speak with people who were open minded. You don't appear to be so, labeling all those who don't think like you to be the big bad enemy. Again, I suggest a break, not a voting change, in your case.
