There was a time when the Governing Elite of the USA would look down at other countries during their periods of elections and say: "We Are The Beacon of Democracy. At Least We Respect Each Other's Opinions". The debates at that time weere peaceful with one defect, the Libertarians, Greens, and other alternative political movements were excluded.
Since the 2000 Elections and with the 9/11 incident, the Republicans and Democrats [while being friendly to each other in private] started to fight and insult each other. The supporters of both parties have also taken an inspiration from the US Governing Elite and have insulted, committed acts of repudiation such as spitting, tearing down signs, and throwing tomatoes with eggs.
In the middle of all of this, there is trouble everytime a Libertarian, Green, or Alternative Party tries to participate in a debate. The Republicans and Democrats then unite and start with the ridicule: "Who Votes for an Alternative Party? That's a Wasted Vote".
The Republicans and Democrats then continue to use terrorist tactics such as threats of job loss, physical, and psychological torture in order to prevail in power. The Republicans and Democrats have even used insults and arrests against Greens and Libertarians Presidential Candidates all the while insulting each other.
What has been the response of those who are of the educated class in America watching the incidents of negativity in the US Elections. Those who have not voted for an alternative political party are staying at home, or voting with their feet to leave a country that is teetering on the border of anarchy or dissolution. The ones that are voting with their feet have voted to exchange their US Dollars into Euros or renouncing their US Citizenship.
Only time will tell what will happen but it is hoped that this situation resolves itself. The alternatives are the following without a resolution:
1. A Civil War based on Region, Race, or Ethnicity
2. Division or Partition like in India/Pakistan
3. Anarchy
The resolution is simple: A Multiracial Multiethnic Libertarian Green Government which would take the USA out of the UN, hold accountable the governing elite of the USA [and their puppets in Cuba, Venezuela, and Nicaragua] for their destructive policies of the Cold War, and return the US Dollar to the Gold Standard.
