Consider this:
You've got one option, one party to surrender your autonomy to, which will represent every action you may or may not stand for.
In a primary election, we choose one voice - one option to lead us. One party docrtine, one political poppet, and one fate for our neighbors regardless of varying or despairing opinion and/or position.
Led to one voice, unremitting and unable to be altered - representing a choice few will have made, because the fear that is set in this unforgiving system causes a great many to refuse to assume responsibility for their leader, because many know how irresponsible this "Commander In Chief," and Cabinet can be.
So, the people are undermined by this lack of options, and eventually superseded by the conceit of the system.
Then - the system, having removed autonomy - makes us traitors. Every last one who can't/won't agree with the doctrine of the party, every person who believes in a set of options which preside outside of the primary tenants of the oligarchy must either give in and follow a set of perogatives one does not in full agree with - or, be left for dead, an ineffectual, unrepresented vagrant and renegade of this misleading political system.
paraphrasing lyrics from Refused:
"One frequency, are you kidding?!
Is it noise or sweet, sweet, sweet?
What frequency will liberation be?"
What we need is a more open-source system of democracy.
When we choose to go apart from the deadly rhythm of the primary political parties, we are demonized - left in the dust.
When we change our minds, we are subverted and targeted as traitors.
John Kerry is a tragic example. "Flip-flop, flip-flop! You refused the party line! Shame on you, shame on you!"
This is just forewarning for the oncoming 2006, and 2008 elections. Think before they think for you. And do vote for the best possible candidate, don't be a victim of the deadly rhythm from their hegemony. You overrule the rulers - that's democracy, it's representative of you, yours, mine, and ours.
And so this post isn't 100% rant, here's some objective help:

^Pretty much, most of the basic info you'll need to make an informed choice.
"What frequency will liberation be?"
One frequency?!
One frequency - are you kidding?!!
