ABC News: 'Political Activist Michael Moore'

Source:ABC News- filmmaker and New-Left political activist Michael Moore.

"Filmmaker and political activist Michael Moore didn’t want you to vote for Al Gore. While he said he thinks Gore is “a decent guy,” he also took the vice president to task in an open letter: “I have spent the last eight years doing what I could, in my own small way, to try and stop the hemorrhaging that your administration caused.”

And Michael Moore really didn't want you to vote for George W. Bush. He told the Texas Governor, “Your possible victory on Tuesday is a threat to our national security.” He went even further, calling Bush “a banal, despicable, and corrupt human being.”

I actually agree with Michael Moore on something. (Maybe it does snow in South Florida in July) America a country of 310M people the third largest population in the world, we are by far the largest country in the world, to just have a two-party system. 

We are also one of the most diverse countries in the world if not the most diverse country in the world politically. We have large segments of our population that represent the entire political spectrum. From already over to the Far-Right, all the way over to the Far-Left. 

We have Liberals, Libertarians, Democratic Socialists, and Marxist-Socialists on the Left. We have Conservatives, Neoconservatives (who are Progressive Republicans) and Christian-Nationalists on the Right. And we have Independents who basically represent centrism in America, but they are a mixture of liberal and conservative in their ideology. 

This all means that we are left with a Democratic Party thats suppose to represent the left-wing in America and be the liberal party. And Liberals tend to run the Democratic Party, but liberals aren't the only people on the left. And the Democratic Party is made up of more people than just Liberals. 

Democrats have Democratic Socialists on the Far-Left and Progressive-Liberals in the middle. So the Democratic Party is essentially made up of three different factions and when the Socialists and Progressives don't like what the other is doing, they threaten to leave the party of destroy it within. 

The Republican Party thats supposes to represent the right-wing in America and be the conservative party and Conservatives used to run that party and to a certain extent still do, but there are a lot less of them in the Republican Party right now and they are probably in the minority in that party now. And of course the Republican Party is made up more than just Conservatives, but Neoconservatives and Christian-Nationalists and they still have some moderate Conservatives left as well in the Northeast especially. 

Not trying to sound partisan as a Democrat to make it official, but the Republican Party thats supposed to be about limited government and individual freedom, now has an authoritarian factions in it now, Christian-Nationalists, who want to make government bigger and limit freedom. (Conservatives, don't you miss the Grand Ole Party?) So the Republican Party is now made up of three competing factions and when the two factions on the outside don't like what the leadership is doing, they threaten to leave or destroy the party inside as well. 

What America a country of 310M people needs politically, is more major political parties that represent our entire political spectrum. There's more than enough of a movement and people who want this to happen and it could easily happen. Especially if you look at the approval ratings of both the Democratic and Republican parties that are in the 20s or 30s. 

We need the Democratic Party to be the progressive party, not a socialist party, which in the past have done a very good job doing. We need the Republican Party to be the conservative party and not a Christian-Nationalist party. And we need the Libertarian Party to step up to the plate and act like a major political party and represent the 10-20% of Libertarians in America. 

The Socialists need their own party that represents the socialist view in American politics. And the Democratic Socialist Party and there is such a thing and they could do this if they formed a coalition, with the Green Party and the so-called Progressive Caucus (DSA Democratic Socialists, in actuality) in the Democratic Party. 

And the Christian-Nationalists could leave the Republican Party and form their own party. 

And the Independents could have their own party as well that would be the Reform Party and others. 

We are a huge country we are more than capable of supporting all of our political factions and do it in the way where we would still have majority parties in Congress. But they would have less special interests to answer to. 

We officially have a two-party system, but in actuality we have two parties that are both made up of at least three parties each, but they are all under the same roof. (So to speak) In a marriage made for hell because they all have their own viewpoints and special interests they have to answer to. And it makes governing almost impossible because the leaders in both parties not only have to worry about the other party, but what other factions are doing in their own party.
