More people need to learn about these parties. Especially the minorities.
raffle baffle I disagree greatly
@David G your not funny
@raffle baffle I believe that the age to vote is fine as it is, if lowered then we will have people voting without have done any research or finding their own political beliefs. It would create a downfall in votes not being valid and they will mean less when people that are younger could vote. Even at the age you can vote now it’s pretty low.
@raffle baffle That’s not really necessary, these parties just need to be heard or shown for educational purposes of course
you're a minority.
Perot was the last time we saw a "third" party candidate in the Presidential debates because they changed the rules to make sure third party candidates do not debate the D and the R. That changed happened when the League of Women Voters were forced out of organizing the Presidential debates.
@raffle baffle Because republicans and democrats don't like 3rd parties.
@@illuforce Exactly. Republicunts & democraps are far-rightwing fascist extremists who hate diversity of ideas & truths & equal uniformity of power & democracy.
Yes we are a duopoly. The two major parties squeeze out the others. No person in power has ever voluntarily given up power. Enough said.
Another time, America decided against democraty.
@@theultimatereductionist7592 you dont understand the political spectrum. You sound like an idiot
I Registered to vote last year but I didn't align myself with a party because I didn't know which I agree with, this year I wanted to do more research. After watching 5 other videos I found this video and its starting to make since. Thank you so much for answering the questions I had.
Hope ur prty affiliation is more clear 5 years later
Mine has
And its not 3rd parties
3rd party makes sense... I like the green party.
Jill Stein
I voted Johnson, but it takes believers in third parties to make the difference.
Green !
💚
I disagree
The two party system has dominated thus far, but is not sustainable because America is too fragmented. Around 40% of Americans now identify as Independents, ~30% as Dems, and 25% as Repubs. (Source: Gallup May/Jun '20). The Left isn't a monolithic entity anymore; the moderates have more in common with Independents than with the far left. A third ('Centrist') party that appeals to Independents and moderates in both parties, could lead to a 3 party system: Socialists (Dem party minus moderates), Centrists and Conservatives (Repub party minus moderates). This would align better with people's interests, and possibly encourage more people to vote. Over the past 50 years, 50+% of the electorate has NOT voted every election. In 2016, for example, more than 100 million eligible voters did not vote.
Candidates from each party could run and the top two in terms of electoral college votes would be President and VP. The Cabinet could also have candidates from all 3 parties (Lincoln appointed his opponents to Cabinet in 1860). Elected representatives from all 3 parties would be in Congress. This kind of a partnership/coalition approach may be a better way to run the country than the current 'winner takes all' approach. At the very least, Congressmen/women will have more incentive to work better with each other, across the aisle, as each will have 'their guy' in the Executive. As a bonus, the 24/7 news/social media driven partisan BS will subside.
Implementation of Proportional Representation for the House of Representatives would make all of the people who support these party's ideologies get a voice.
Libertarians are basically a weird mix of Republicans and Democrats. Sometimes I find myself agreeing with a Libertarian candidate at times and sometimes I don't. I do think they are the biggest third party and the one that has the most potential of breaking our 2-party system. Or even replacing one of the 2 major parties. Think of how it would be to haeLibertarian vs Democrats in elections?
Libertarians are more republican/conservative than anything. The only left wing/democratic ideology that libertarians have is the call for same sex marriage and all drug legalization. Everything else is essentially conservative stuff or things heavily leaned towards Republican ideology
Libertarian here, when you get into it, we aren't 1/2 Democrat + 1/2 Republican. For example, Democrats, while supporting some individual liberties, still support the surveillance state, and are anti-2A to name a couple of things. We do agree with Republicans on what should be done with the welfare state, but it basically ends there. They support the federal reserve, we don't. They support bailouts, we don't. Etc
is that really u in ur pfp
No, Libertarians believe that government should not regulate the economy, guns, drugs, or borders, marriage and many other things, the base belief of Libertarianism is no victim no crime
Thanks for the upload.
I'm here preparing for the "REFORM!!!" documentary upcoming by Jon Bois. Thanks for the educational breakdown on the larger picture!
What if the People's Party, the Greens, the Libertarian Party, the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL), and all minor parties were to announce, "We will be separate parties again in the future, but until we get Approval Voting in every State, we are going under the banner of the People's Party. We ask everyone to join our parties and get on our mailing lists if you have affinity for our ideologies at all, but also help organize the People's Party and vote for People's-Party candidates until we have won Approval Voting. The Americans have everything to gain and nothing to lose by following this plan. It is the shortest and least violent path to the defeat of corporate rule."
Great presentation! I’m nearly a half-century old and had no idea what Independents were.
You also taught me math today
The OWL Party of Washington was a minor political party founded in a jazz club, the Tumwater Conservatory, in Tumwater, Washington, to field candidates in the 1976 elections. It was founded by entertainer Red Kelly, owner of the establishment where it was founded. The party's name was a double acronym, standing for "Out With Logic, On With Lunacy", and its motto was "We don't give a hoot!"[1] The ease with which this frivolous party gained access to a place on the ballot led the Washington legislature to significantly increase the difficulty of minor-party access. The changes were challenged, ultimately for the most part unsuccessfully, by established minor parties such as the Socialist Worker
Do you think it's possible for some of these parties to form a coalition to become a viable third party? Along with some progressive democrats.
I'm pretty sure it's going to happen. A workers party would include AOC, bernie sanders, illan omar and many progressives are challenging the Democrats who are in office
While they align on some issues, they are also strongly opposed on others. What would be more likely is a splitting of the major parties that results in a new two party dynamic.
Their way too different. Could you image libertarians and stalinists in the same party.
You should all understand this. Watch the whole video.
I will say the voting system "we" (I am not an American citizen) have is we only can vote for one person but not like some countries you can make a list or ranking. But this is just what I thought, it might be wrong.
Is there a political party in the US with economic views of the left liberals and social views of the right conservative ?
I would want the oppsite lol.
Some economic views of the right and some socialist views of the left.
I wonder what social views from the right do you want
@@meistsyans6526 are u srrious ? Ur dream party already exists its the libertarian party.
@@ivanyarmolenko1989 what?? libertarians don't care about other people. You do you mentally. That's why i said I want some social views of the Democrats. I want kinda like social net, but not "free" money, more like free tools to be financially responsible.
Libertarians are borderline anarchists and I don't like that at all...
@@meistsyans6526 so u would like Macron the french president former socialist now on the right of economic
@@ivanyarmolenko1989 I have no idea. I'll search him up.
I think i kinda lean towards the alliance party out of all the ones that exist. But not sure because their website says so much. Basically just 3 main takes and the others are not really elaborated.
Winner take all is for the presidential election, not congressional. Congress is elected in bite sized chunks, so all that needs to happen is for one chunk to win for the third parties to be represented in Congress. This has happened quite a bit in the past.
That was before the major parties started passing more restrictive election laws, making it far more difficult for third party candidates to run.
I put this video on “quotes” because this is a “good” video 😉
This video makes me sad
Green Party for America!
360 Knowledge They will never win without the national popular vote interstate compact
@@danhetch1927 they will never win under a popular vote oriented system. We need a proportional representation sort of system for the house, and need to make the electoral college proportional like Maine and Nebraska, popular votes lead to city domination. Hillary Clinton won only the cities in 2016 but worth that had the popular vote, and Biden this year won mainly just the cities yet again has the popular vote lead.
Why not get an seven political party system and get rid the to political parties
absurd
Sadly never have a chance i believe in a woman's right to choose, I believe in some gun control but limited gun control I also believe in some free markets I want a third party...
Math & Reductionism Party
.
i support both libertarian parties
Libertarian here, the best party!!!
Seize&Deceased Green for life!
Oh yes the party of corruption REPUBLICAN!!!
Seize&Deceased
Debatable, tell me why?
Reform Is present, my dude.
@@davevanlerberg5092 Because its probably the only party that will openly say "We don't know how to run your life, neither does anybody else. So we aren't gonna tell you how to run your life.."
I guess you could also say that its because it is in support of both Free Markets and Anti-Corporatism. Meaning; Politicians nor Corporations are allowed to use Government force/power to control the economy. The Consumers, Workers, and Firms each get a cut in steering it. Though one would believe companies and corporations would dominate, one must remember that all the money that keeps those Firms afloat come from Consumers, and without Labor they can't provide the service or good. Thus, no income for the firm.
Vote Green. The Green has a great platform but needs a charismatic leader to win.
They’ve tried to get Bernie to join them
To all Americans: VOTE HOWIE HAWKINS / ANGELA N WALKER for POTUS/VP 2020. Green Party USA!
or Charlie Kam / Liz Parrish U.S. Transhumanist Party for POTUS/VP 2020!
Make the White House Green or Transhumanist in 2021!
You can't blame Greens, Transhumanists, Marxists, Socialists, Communists, Anarchists, or Libertarians.
They're not the ones in power.
Green Party be like:T R E E S
Then the Democrats and Republicans be like C R E E P
First
vote Bernie
Bub Huynh Bernie is too far left and will never win against Trump
@@danhetch1927 bernie would be moderate, even right wing in most other countries.
So, you life in a Democratorship ? All advanced Democracy’s changed their system from Majorical to Proportional... This is how democracy works. Imagine this actual system would happen for the Senate and the Congress ...!!!
Trumpist party is the best
nazi party lol
