It doesn't suck, the number of voters seems to mostly rise from year to year, at least last I checked, though that was about a year or so ago, but it's just not enough to battle the mentality that everything comes down to a yes or a no, which is ingrained in the heads of so many Americans. Theoretically at some point it will be strong enough, but that also requires a willingness for change, which the country proved it was not ready for when it bought in to the obvious hollow promises of either John McCain or Barack Obama. They like the idea of change, and thinking they are progressive, but when it comes time to bite the bullet safety is always what is preferred. But hey, it doesn't bother me, people like that kind of thing and who am I to tell people what to like?
