Yeh it sucks that he has absolutely no chance of winning and that you only have the choice between 2 candidates who are completely useless in their attempts to solve anything. We're in exactly the same position in the UK. Why is this guy not able to participate in the debates?
Because the last time they had a free-thinking candidate in the debates he upset people so the debate commission (comprised of democrats and republicans) was formed to control who is allowed to participate in the debates.
It technically is but at the last election parliament was hung and the very left wing Liberal Democrats (who didn't actually have many seats) joined the right wing conservatives to form a coalition, since then they've just become irrelevant and nobody trusts them anymore so they don't have a shout in the next election. Why would left wingers who previously voted for them continue to vote for them when they'd been helping the right wing government?
Holy fuck, that Romney guy just bleeds that weird sleazy shady corporate vibe. To quote gunnery sergeant Hartman, he looks ike the kind of person who would fuck you in the ass and not have the common courtesy to give you a reach-around. Dude gives me the chills.

I'm not a big political nut, so this may be a noob question, but why are 3rd parties not given the same exposure that Republicans and Democrats get? Why are they not in the debates? Guys like Gary Johnson seem like they deserve more exposure.
Wasn't sure if Obama and Romney were opponents or RUNNING MATES during that debate. Holy shit you are deluded if you think there is a significant difference between the two after that.
^ Third party candidates are kept out of the debates by the presidential debate commission which is comprised of democrats and republicans.
Romney was always clueless. He doesn't even have a platform. His platform is basically "I'm not Obama" and he can't even do that right.
