The political system in the US is essentially rigged. Gerrymandering and the electoral system has made dissenting votes count for nothing. For example a republic living in a democrat controlled district or vice versa their votes would not really count because the district has one vote. Both parties participate in this and until we have a straight popular vote we will continue to have the george bushes of the country elected. I really think the two party system is outdated but i guess i can't really complain because I don't have a better alternative. My support goes to candidates I feel are progressive but not just handing money out and have an interest in developing our scientific research programs.
