FWIW, I'm a pretty conservative, bona-fide Old-Fart, but I do no think it matters WHO gets in office. I feel that by now things are so entrenched that with the two-party system it matters VERY little who gets in.

Revolution and term limits are the only fixes I can see (not fomenting revolution here, just opinion!!).

I think instant runoff voting and proportional representation would go a long way but we'd need constitutional amendments to get that and the fox is guarding the hen house, so to speak. The folks in the entrenched parties don't want the competition.
