The constant infighting in the House and Senate has totally blinded our republican and democratic representatives to the point that they really believe that the American public actually agree with whatever insanity they want to throw at us. The absolutely sad part of all of this is that we the people cannot do anything to change this sick and ineffective group in Washington. We cannot get rid of them because their numbers are too large. They are busy giving away our country and when they are not busy doing that they are busy destroying it politically and humanitarily without caring about the effect it has on its citizens and/or the world. We cannot vote them out because the choices we are given to vote for are just as bad as the ones we want to vote out. I really feel that my vote is useless and that I have no representation in the House or the Senate.

I do not have any control over how these people were even chosen to run for a political office. Where do these people come from? What slime did they just crawl out of to be considered as a candidate for anything. I certainly did not have any voice in how they were picked. Once they are in office it almost takes an act of God to get rid of them. I no longer have a country that takes care of its people. I no longer have a country that is run by honorable people. What has happened to my country? We need some extreme measures to be taken and some extreme changes need to be made.

Well, duh, Richard! A movement whose focus is centrist is going to feature centrists! All of the Democrats are conservative for Democrats, and all of the Republicans are moderate for Republicans. The one liberal is Bloomberg, the former Dem and former Rep. No Greens (or Libertarians or Constitution Party people either), because members of those parties are vehemently not centrist.
