      Which you can add on to the list of reasons why two party systems are bullshit.

      I vote for people and not against people, though. Corrupt politicians are not politicians I want to vote for.

          This is how you get voter disenfranchisement. Voter shaming isn’t a good way to get out the vote en masse; inspiring voters is how you do it.

          FDR got elected president 4 times consecutively, with some of the biggest numbers in US history. Republicans had to make term limits to make sure that doesn’t happen again because he was so popular.

          On the other hand, we got a fascist as president for 4 years because Hillary didn’t inspire people (and the DNC rigged the primary against Bernie).
