The USA has lost its moral compass for the sake of a two party system. Is it really worth it?

During the Great Depression all kinds of shifts in political beliefs took place.  There was even a rise in Communism at that time.  There wasn't the internet or televisions in abundance.

I know people feel betrayed and much of what has passed as legislation seems counter intuitive.  The cry is 'Common Sense' rather than making 'Good Sense.'  

If there is anything I wish, it would be for the electorate to take a step back and realize what there vote means to them.  

No one should waste their vote on anger or impulse.  It needs to be right and for troubled times having a country with a consistent rudder is better than one that will cause us to drift off course into dangerous waters.  

All I ask is that people think about what they are doing.  Nothing more.  The voting booth is not a church pew.  Vote with clear minded interest in what we know to be the truth, not on guesses and empty rhetoric.  We are not floudering that badly and there is no reason to regret the vote of 2008.
