A third party is upon US, not a minute too soon
Published under Democracy and Freedom (or lack of), Global, United States Oct 04, 2010I agree with pretty much everything in this column by Thomas Friedman that a third party to challenge the ossified and bankrupt two party system is desperately needed.
The only thing that I disagree with is Friedman’s self-important hedge that this is such a bold and risky prediction by him, as if he gets it right he will be a mind-reader. The writing is on the wall, everywhere you turn. From the excitement for Bloomberg’s centrist independent thinking, to cultural revulsion towards extreme partisanship.
