    The problem is you chuds don’t start caring until election year. If you don’t want to be stuck with the “better of two bad options” as your choices, get involved earlier in the process at the stages where picking the candidates and positions actually happens. If you’re bitching about choices in the general election and yet you weren’t part of the primary season, then you’re complicit with the problem. Change takes effort, on our part. If we give a shit, we have to be willing to do a little bit of work, and that work starts long before you walk into a polling booth in November.

        Yeah but watch the new gen still come along and whine ‘why are all the candidates old? Why cant you pick anyone else??’ while they slept through the nominations and complain how everything happens TO them.
