I had an idea the other day after watching the debates, both Democratic and Republican. I realized that I would like to get to vote both for my favorite democrat and favorite republican. Just think, I mused, if everyone could vote for their favorite from each party, we'd end up with a candidate who was OK either way. The problem is that the partisans on one side or another end up nominating someone horrid. I wanted McCain to beat Bush in 2000. I was a Dean guy in 2004.
Then it hit me, it's easy. We can't register democrat and then register republican. However, if half of us register democrat and half register republican, and then vote for our favorite, we almost guarantee a nice moderate, popular president. Both candidates should be OK, and then maybe we'll have a nice decade going forward.
How-To:
1: Flip a coin. If it is heads register democrat, if it is tails register republican.
2: Vote for your favorite candidate in whichever party you ended up with.
3: Spread this idea to all your friends.
Good luck!
