Noam Chomsky
“I personally never expected anything of Obama, and wrote about it before the 2008 primaries. I thought it was smoke and mirrors [...] I don't usually admire Sarah Palin, but when she was making fun of this 'hopey changey' stuff, she was right, there was nothing there. And it was understood by the people who run the political system, and so it's no great secret that the US electoral system is mainly a public relations extravaganza...it's sort of a marketing affair.”
Noam Chomsky

Tamuna Tsertsvadze
“People would rather prefer blaming their crimes on a third party than taking responsibility upon themselves... It is their nature.”
Tamuna Tsertsvadze, The Guardian Spirit

Richard Hofstadter
“Third parties are like bees: once they have stung, they die.”

Phillip Andrew Bennett Low
“And it started out fun. We were chattering enthusiastically, flipping between CNN, MSNBC, and FOX News. But as the evening wore on, and the numbers rolled in, it got quieter, and I found myself becoming intensely depressed. Why was I putting myself through this? The issues I’ve devoted my life to have become so marginalized by the coverage that they have no possible relevance to me. I can’t even blame the media — people simply don’t care about alternate-party politics. And why should they? I’m so far in the minority that my activism is a joke, a punchline that stopped being funny years ago. It goes beyond rooting for the underdog. It’s not rooting for the Giants: it’s more like, say, rooting for the Twins. But during the Super Bowl.”
Phillip Andrew Bennett Low, Indecision Now! A Libertarian Rage

“Do Not Dictate a Child through Someone, it Ruins the Child's Experience.”
Vineet Raj Kapoor

Michael Bassey Johnson

Seduce your spouse, wreck your home and take your place.”
Michael Bassey Johnson, The Infinity Sign

C.A.A. Savastano
“I do the equivalent of not voting, I vote third party. I dare to dream.”
C.A.A. Savastano

Michael Medved
“No minor-party candidate has ever won the presidency or, for that matter, even come close. For the most part, these ego-driven ‘independent’ adventures in electoral narcissism push the political process further away from their supporters’ professed goals, rather than advancing the insurgent group’s agenda or ideas.”
Michael Medved, The 10 Big Lies about America

Dr Tracey Bond
“Men and women who are genius at what they know, understand and do, content to experience the tragedy of going through life as a light placed under a table if you will...a dimmable, hidden, and unknown legend.

The day that special person makes the wisdom decision, to hire another genius skilled to unveil, and strategically hail that cloaked legend...legacy can lay its foundation as a forever cornerstone.”
Lady Tracey Bond DoubleOHHSeven™

Ehsan Sehgal
“Approaching and achieving what one wants through a third party is a pure risk of failure, whether sooner or later; it also shows a lack of confidence and ability. In this context, one can figure out that the United Nations and its Security Council indeed fall under such third-party exactly.”
Ehsan Sehgal
