No, but we should (first) replace the FPTP system with an IRV voting system, and (second) kick the crazies out. By "crazies", I only mean the people that support Trump. Cruz-fans, Paul-fans, heck, even Carson-fans are still sort-of okay-ish.

I like the way you think! Implement Instant Runoff Voting! Maybe even have blanket primaries once again where voters, whether D, R, I or O, can vote for the candidate they like the most!!


Well, I don't really like blanket or open primaries. I believe that parties are private organizations, and should have the right to nominate their own candidates.

Paul-fans are fine. It's Trump-fans and Cruz-fans that bother me. Carson-fans are more moderate Huckabees.
Cruz is a slimy demagogue, but he has okay-ish policies that I'm fine with. Trump isn't Tea Party. Not even close.

NYMillennial is a troll. Just put him on ignore, guys. He seems to think that anything other than enlightened liberalism is "childish".
