    You aren't awake. If you were you wouldn't be asking this question.

    As far as the national elections go there is no alternative. But I guess you must need an answer though.

    My pick would be someone who would actually protect and defend the constitution instead of paying lip service to it while they're undermining it and usurping the powers of congress and of the states.

    Know anyone like that running for VP in either party? I sure don't.

    Not awake, or not as conspiratorially-minded as you?

    Either way, your answer is a non-answer.

    What would you have me say? We've been duped by these guys talking the talk and acting like they want to be our saviors how many times now?

    How many more times do we all have to go through this before you'll really wake up and smell the coffee?

    The alternatives we're offered are always another form of the same thing. You'll realize that someday. Maybe.

    Liberty.

    1. freedom from arbitrary or despotic government or control.
    2. freedom from external or foreign rule; independence.


    SOURCE

    What is Romney, Rubio, Obama and Biden offering?

    No offense intended, but it appears to me by this post that all you offer is rhetoric. Who/what do you suggest specifically that is a tangible alternative to what you seem to claim is oppressive?

    It does no good to curse the darkness if no solution is at hand.

    Seem to claim? You do understand that somewhere between G. W. Bush and B. H. Obama the USA has been turned into a two party dictatorship right?

    What's the alternative to that?

    This.

    You waking up to the fact that the USA is dying of a thousand cuts while you sit there and ask dumb questions about the wrong things. No offense mind you.

    The alternative is limited constitutional government not unlimited big brother government. The alternative to 1984 is 1776.

    Now I ask again. What is Romney, Rubio, Obama and Biden offering?
