Under our current system, you basically have two choices. Judging by your posts, you seem to prefer what the Republicans offer as opposed to the Democrats. So, will you try and change the Republicans from the inside, or sit on the outside of the next election because the Republicans are “too religious” for your tastes? Right now, a third party and independents have zero political clout and power. That may change in time if too many like minded Dems and Republicans get sick of their respective parties and join to form another third party. But, that is a long, long way off.

The only way to effect change in the current political line-up is to be IN the current political line-up. So, you can work from the ground up in the Republican party, and get them to see things your way (good luck doing that with the Dems), or you can sit on the sidelines and craft rational and well thought out tomes to nobody.
