suprise, there are more than two political parties

you would never know it by watching the news, but yes it's true, there are more than two political parties. i hate to admit it, but i lifted this image from okcupid.com, regardless of the source, i still think it's a good illustration of the various parties you never hear about. i might even go so far as to suggest that you take the survey and see where you land. (surprisingly, it put me right where i would have put myself.) anyway, if you think you are an independent because you don't fall in line with democrat or republican party beliefs, you might find that there is a party that you do fall in line with. wikipedia claims that as many as 30 percent of voters are independent. what portion of the remaining 70% registered as republican or democrat because they feel those are the only two choices? as for myself, libertarian for the most part, and yes i throw away my vote every four years.
