"Voters—and all Americans—deserve better than two corporate-controlled parties," asserted the leader of Our Revolution.
You're viewing part of a thread.
There is not always a new party. In the past, new parties came from branching old parties.

If you would back dems long enough to get supermajority they could pass voting reforms which make your ideal possible.
