Change is needed in America. But if you want true change the two party system has got to go as I think it holds back our progress more than anything.

I think I agree with that. I don't yet know much about the issues the two-party system causes, but getting rid of it seems to make sense to me.

As much as that would be nice to add a third or even a forth possible party, good luck getting that done and not having that sucked into either side currently in place. Sort of how the tea party ended up.

Exactly, if I recall the first tea party was libertarian and their was calls to start an actual party by that name and the GOP at first called for litmust tests to keep them out then got clever and embraced them and slowly turned them back into the old guard.
