My view is that the traditional left-to-right, progressive-to-conservative, Democratic-to-Republican political axis that we’re all so familiar with is no longer a valid schematic of American political opinion. And I believe neither party has the foggiest idea what the new diagram looks like. I don’t think Trump can see the new spectrum either, as evidenced by the way his approval ratings have plunged since his inauguration. But both he and Sanders deserve credit for seeing that the old model has outlived its usefulness. |

I kind of figured this would be outside the box. Things are changing... |

It began changing in 2009. I saw that, but a lot of politicians didn't and some still don't. ------------------------- I :heart; Q |

The two party system sucks because both parties suck plain and simple. Together they're dividing the nation in what seems to be some form of pervese colusion. Is that the new spectrum? |

I think we are going through a legitimate cultural shift. It's the 21st century! Haha, but seriously we have FB and Twitter, hand computers that let us face call, watch phones, a la carte uncensored TV. Stuff like that will change the culture. Have patience (except for world breakers like nuke war and climate change). |

You might be right. Before all that stuff, people had to deal with everyone and get everyone's viewpoint. Now, it is much easier to wall yourself off with your own kind, regardless of how small that group might be. ------------------------- I :heart; Q |
