Too long for me - but read the first 1/3 and agreed.
I don't see a difference between the far right and the far left. Fringe is fringe.
And.
It is the outliers who move the middle with their passion. There is a place for them.
Although I have trouble seeing the point of the far right.... they do have a place in the mix. Just don't put them in charge, please!

Awarding Boise_Lib with one star point for this contribution to VideoSift - declared quality by dystopianfuturetoday.
The 'both candidates are the same' argument is appealing to ignorant people, because it gives them a feeling of superiority without actually having to have any understanding of the candidates or politics in general. If you ask them to explain what each candidate's policy positions are in detail, the ruse evaporates and they are immediately humbled.
