I agree with this reasoning, but the two party system + our primary process means I have limited say in the options (and rarely like them).

  The remedy for this is ranked-choice voting, not legislating against the types of candidates you dislike.

    Totally agree. I guess I’m just feeling desperate b/c I don’t see a path out of our current political structure. Maybe liquid democracy could overcome the impasse?

      One of he problems with getting out of our political structure is that most people are afraid of too much change at one time. That’s why Biden will have won the Democratic nomination despite being significantly to the right of his own party. Even good change can be scary when you have a lot to lose.
