that system doesn't go far enough. Many -- if not most -- states require you to register as a member of a party to vote in that party's primaries.


If that was the case, I could understand (I'd still be upset). If you had to declare Dem or Rep and stick with it, in other words if you vote dem in the primaries, you have to vote dem in the final election, that might make some sense at least (Because you wouldn't be able to sabatoge the other side basically). So I agree with you, it doesn't go far enough (not that I would be happy if it did).

I do think you should be able to vote for both if you declare as unselected, you should have a say in who becomes president even if your not a Dem or Rep, and since it's a two party system right now, the only way to have a say is to vote for who the candidate is for each party.

I'm a moderate, I like things from both sides, and most importantly, I want both sides to work together not fight each other all the time. Should I have no say in who gets elected, or just a say once the choice has come down to the last 2 options?

There are many people like me out there, and it's not fair to force them to declare as either Dem or Rep, but whatever, ain't my system, don't gotta try and fix it.
