Was it Mobutu Sese Soko who once said America was a "one party dictatorship, but with typical American extravagance, it has two of them?"

I don't think so, actually, but whoever did say it, well, I'm sure they're laughing hard in that circle of hell reserved for statesmen and other criminals:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/election-2012/wp/2012/10/16/green-party-candidate-arrested-outside-debate-site/

QuoteGreen Party presidential candidate Jill Stein and running mate Cheri Honkala were arrested outside Long Island's Hofstra University ahead of tonight's debate.

After being denied entrance to the campus because they lacked credentials, the two candidates sat down in the street in front of the university with an American flag on their laps, the Long Island Report explains. They were led away by police officers after refusing to move.

Stein and Honkala objected to being excluded from the debate, saying they are on 85 percent of state ballots and should be part of the national discussion.

Even better according to Democracy Within 30 Minutes Or You Get Your Next Political System Free Now!, Jill Stein was handcuffed to a chair and held in a police warehouse (designed for protestors) for 8 hours.  Just her, her VP candidate and over a dozen police.

HELLO.  SOME PEOPLE ARE JUST NOT CLUEING IN.

Oh, those wacky Green party candidates!

Listen up, citizen...They are already paying for two parties for you support.  Three parties will cost more for no additional benefit, and will simply confuse you.  You are either RED or BLUE.  Custom packages ARE permitted, but are not supported by the current operating system.  Those weren't security guards or cops, they were ANTI-VIRUS SOFTWARE.

Now shut the fuck up and pick which color you support.  It's all the Goddamn political thinking YOU need to do.

This is how they allow the dangerous monkeys to neutralize themselves.  Give them a pretend alternative to play with.  Blows the steam off, keeps 'em from hanging G/S execs from lamp posts.

The 2 big parties are corrupt. The smaller parties are powerless. So either you vote for the asshole, or you vote for the pipsqueak with no chance in Hell of ever making a dent in the system.

Because your dissatisfaction has been routed into a cause that has no hope of success.

It is not illegal to tell your employees your opinion of what's best for the company they work for, and thus their jobs, unless you are within 100 feet of a polling place.

It IS illegal to ORDER your employees to vote one way or the other.

It's also perfectly legal to require your employees to attend a particular political rally - even under threats of firing.
