Herman Cain believes as I do that there are enough disgruntled members of congress from both parties to start a 3rd one.

Former Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain is calling for the creation of a third political party — saying it is clear to him that neither major political party is willing to address the nation’s economic problems.


“We need a third party to save this country,” Cain told American Family Radio host Bryan Fischer. “This country is in trouble and it is clear that neither party — is going to fix the problems we face.”

Cain agreed with Fischer’s assessment that conservatives are growing tired of being ignored by Republican party leadership — and that many believe the GOP no longer speaks for them.

Cain said it was troubling that Mitt Romney received fewer votes than John McCain did in 2008 — suggesting that many conservatives did not vote on Tuesday.

“I don’t believe the Republican Party has the ability to rebrand itself against the mainstream media machine that blatantly works to support this president and other liberals as well as the Democrats,” Cain told the radio host.

Cain said it would take money, leadership and at least 50 coalitions to create a viable third political party.

“You need one for every state because of the whacky rules state by state that they have that make it difficult for a third party to emerge,” he said.

He said the new party could be made up of not only disenfranchised Republicans — but also Democrats.

“There are just as many disgruntled Democrats would probably be a part of this movement as there are Republicans — who are sick of the political class,” Cain told American Family Radio. “Realistically, it is more viable today than it has ever been.”

In case you missed it he was talking about the moderate republicans and democrats, this would be a "legitimate" 3rd party made up of known incumbents.

first thing required is to lower the Treshold so viable new Parties have a Chance to part-take in the National Political Process!

Americans also need to hand count votes that were done by hand.
Trash those crooked voting machines and demand Voter IDs to vote.

Would that be the very same Herman Cain who tried to get into the pants of every woman he got close to?

Yeah, he would make a great third party candidate.

No, that was Bill Clinton.

If that were true (Which it hasn't been proven like in the case of Clinton, Weiner, Spitzer, McGreevy, Adams etc.) about Herman Cain he would make a great Democrat then.

Yep, there needs to be (from what I see) a better way to balance things and hold people accountable, and most of all make decisions. I think everyone pretty much has the feeling that something has to give. A lot of tension in the air these days. Makes me very sad.

Our voice and vote has been taken from us by a ruling 2 party elitist system with banker funding.

You know the expression...."Money talks!"

I think if the people actually "knew" what our gov't and its agents thought, did, was capable of or wished for, the whole system would come crashing down around them.... but their media mogals won't let that happen thru controlled journalism....I mean propaganda.
