    No.
    I was heavily into the Howard Phillips campaign when the party formed as the U.S. Taxpayers Party, and it was later renamed to the Constitution Party with new presidential candidates and heavily infiltrated by extremist right wing religious nutjobs. I really do mean the kind that drink cool-aid and attack other people, Westboro Baptist style. There is nothing that remains of the Constitution Party worth reading about or even considering.

    The two party system is the only option, it's how this control mechanism works. At best, a third party can acquire perhaps 15 percent of the popular vote and that's not going to count for anything, especially when they are often left out of the primaries and not even covered in the news.

    End of story.

    Not impressed...the item that bothers me most is they claim that government is the worst way to accomplish things, but they wish to become the government... [doh]

    When mittens was running against dingle berry, I cast my vote for whoever it was that ran on the constitution party. Could not even hold my nose and vote for mittens. Back when no name ran against dingle berry first term, I did vote for no name and still to this day regret that, should have wrote in my own name.

    Vote for Trump and get ready for whatever is coming. He at least talks about keeping the second amendment and the Constitution.
    I always figured an economic collapse would happen whoever is in the white house.

    I got to agree with Broker on this... And, Big Ron is right, we need to get behind Trump. Whatever is coming we need to be on the legal side to at least defend ourselves and that means Trump needs to win if not...we're screwed.

    No Party, Lone Wolf!
    All aspiring parties have their own agenda misaligned with our constitution, and no matter how well conceived, they ALL have a play to gain personal wealth and power! I cannot get behind any party that would do such things, and call it anything but what it is!

    Bending Mag Lips and Rolling Crimps!

    I've said it elsewhere, I'll say it again: Trump was NOT supposed to happen. Whatever plans the left had with Hitlery were foiled, and they have been pissed off ever since. Voting third party is indeed a wasted vote in our current system. If you like the freedoms we still have, if you like having a few dollars in your pocket, and enjoy slingin' some lead at the range you need to put the ego and opinion on hold and help keep Trump in office. The current Democratic party is so far removed from it's original form as to not even have that identity, but rather should go ahead and call it the United Socialists of America. Trump ain't the best, but he's what we need right now, since we basically have a two party system and the other choice is Biden.

    A vote for anyone other then Trump is a vote for Pedo Joe and the Hoe, no matter how you slice it, and that's the sad reality of a third party vote! Sure, vote your consious, take the high road and claim your moral superiority at not voting for some one just because you don't like or agree with them! That's simply arrogant and stupid, and you get to live with the fact that you threw your vote to the left because you refused to vote for the RIGHT! The blame is completely on those who refuse to vote, or vote third party! It's your right to vote what ever way you like, just as you have the right to be stupid with that vote! Those who choose to vote third party as a revolt are in fact irresponsible and shouldn't be voting at all!
