One note about Malcolm X... he went away from the Nation of Islam and realized it wouldn't work, and that's why he was killed.
And I'm independent... nothing to do with having no backbone, it's simply that I don't agree with everything on the right. Same reason I'm agnostic, I don't see any religion that fits my beliefs.
I think the NRA and Right-to-Lifers are a bunch of ***I'm Stupid for Swearing***s and nutcases. I hate them, and I hate that they're associated with Republicans. A lot of social issues I will lean towards the left. I have my problems with the left too. When it comes to politics, I am pretty much Republican. So that's who I'll mostly vote for, although I am skeptical of some of the more conservative candidates.
Independent isn't exactly a party... like you say "they'll never win." Independent just means that you won't devote yourself to one particular party, and during primaries you can choose which primary you want to vote for, whereas a Republican has to go in and vote Republican. I won't devote myself to Republicans because I'm not as extreme as some of the people in GOP, and essentially I agree with acid. I have a phrase that Republicans and Democrats are two balls under the same dick.
