MOST AMERICANS FAVOR a third-party White House bid.


From Washington Wire:


Some 53% back the idea of building a third party to mount presidential candidacy. Support is strongest among men, those younger than 50, professionals and Northeasterners.

Seven of 10 say an independent would enhance the presidential campaign, and just 11% say they wouldn’t consider voting for an independent. Yet in hypothetical independent bid against Clinton and Giuliani, New York City Mayor Bloomberg draws just 16% from self-described independents.


This is interesting. I remembered reading a book by Frank Feathers years ago who discussed the new wave of technology and thinking of gen-x and gen-y. In his book, he mentioned that there will be a President in an independent party in the future. People's way of thinking has changed. But, I am believer of voting only statesmen or states women and the candidate that will do the job.
