Your assumption that Democrats (including Obama) are that much different from Republicans just shows how naive you are. Both parties are essentially the same. They just have slightly different agendas, neither of which are positive for America.

We need a third party leadership.

I agree with your assessment, but disagree with your solution. Why would we ADD a 3rd party? That is just adding fuel to the fire.

I say abolish political parties completely. All of them are unhealthy for the country.

The country is supposed to be ran for and by the individual, but because of political parties and interest groups, it is more like the country is ran for and by the groups with the largest influence.

For example, lets say there is a group that has 500 members. They believe in raising taxes. Now lets look at the 1000 individual people who aren't in a group and believe in lowering taxes. Who do you think gets more say? The large entity of 500 people or a few individuals who aren't involved in any groups?

It's the party that stands out over the group of individuals and that simply isn't fair.
