It's shaping up to be a nice country. Big government statists run the democratic and republican platforms and all other parties are squelched by the corporate media lapdogs of our owners. It's come to the point where the party ideologies are so greyed and blurred, that the only differences we can see between the presidential candidates has to viewed from a superficial level.
in other words we have one party posing as two to shape the debate and fill the heads of americans with nonissues that they will bring to the polls as the real issues and cast their vote accordingly.
Blue tie or red? Fair share talk, or phony free market talk?
What a fine, classy, intelligent, well informed and highly motivated society we've created here.

I disagree.
How so? Can you cite examples that prove that there is a true difference in the party platforms besides social issues that the federal government has no authority in deciding from the start?
Disagreement is agreeable in that regard.

Mitt Romney is kind of anti-union, and Obama is kind of pro-union.
Mitt Romney is pro-Life, and Obama is pro-Choice
Mitt Romney wants to lower taxes on corporations and billionaires, Obama wants to raise taxes on corporations and billionaires
Romney is anti-government regulation, Obama is pro-government regulation
Romney is kind of pro-war, Obama is kind of anti-war
Romney is against universal health care, Obama is for it
I'm sure the list goes on and on, but those are a few differences off the top of my head. To some people, the differences are great enough to make a decision, to others it isn't so clear.
I think one of the greatest influences a President has on the country is in who they decide to appoint as Supreme Court justices. Sometimes we don't see the effect of these decisions until many years after the President is out of office.

Fixed.Mitt Romney is kind of anti-union federal legislation, and Obama is kind of pro-union legislation. Except not really, as he throws his own support base under the proverbial bus.
Not a federal government task to determine. It's a nonissue in politics. Sort of like tie color.Mitt Romney is pro-Life, and Obama is pro-Choice
Fixed.Mitt Romney wants to lower taxes on corporations and billionaires, Obama says he wants to raise taxes on corporations and people making 250,000 a year or more. Which is hardly taxing just the wealthiest.
Horseshit. Romney and Obama both love the federal government mandates...as long as they are the ones making the mandate.Romney is anti-government regulation, Obama is pro-government regulation
Fixed.Romney talks of pro-war, Obama is of pro-war.
Fixed.Romney is for state legislated universal health care, Obama is for federal government legislated U.H care.
I'm not going to speak on behalf of others, but to me it's pretty damn clear their positions are almost identical apart from the route at which the rhetoric flows.I'm sure the list goes on and on, but those are a few differences off the top of my head.

Humans and chimps share 96% of the same DNA... but we're not identical.

they speak about it differently.
There's really no way of knowing how their actions would be different. It's not anything you can prove.
Differences are differences. To the untrained eye, there's no difference between different shades of colors, but to an artist there is.
Eskimos have a whole bunch of different words for snow. Carpenters know about the different kinds of wood, but it pretty much all looks the same to me.

Here, I'll help you out. you seem to need some.
Strategy
1. Also, strategics. the science or art of combining and employing the means of war in planning and directing large military movements and operations.
2. the use or an instance of using this science or art.
3. skillful use of a stratagem: The salesperson's strategy was to seem always to agree with the customer.
4. a plan, method, or series of maneuvers or stratagems for obtaining a specific goal or result: a strategy for getting ahead in the world.
Can be confused: stratagem, strategy, tactic (see synonym note at the current entry ).
Synonyms
1. In military usage, a distinction is made between strategy and tactics. Strategy is the utilization, during both peace and war, of all of a nation's forces, through large-scale, long-range planning and development, to ensure security or victory. Tactics deals with the use and deployment of troops in actual combat.
tactic
1. tactics ( def. 1 ) .
2. a system or a detail of tactics.
3. a plan, procedure, or expedient for promoting a desired end or result.
Can be confused: stratagem, strategy, tactic (see synonym note at strategy).
Strategy, even in my profession, is the long term path to goal attainment. The tactic, is the procedure used in the strategy.

it's not that complicated.
there are differences. The differences aren't huge to you, but they're there.
Let me put it to you like this: Do you really give a shit whether your bathroom is fuchsia or magenta? I don't, but to some people, it might make a huge difference. To me all that matters is if the plumbing works.

Well, they are two seperate colors.......curious though....WTF does this have to do with political agendas?
Are we painting the white house for Obrahma or something?.
You told me there is a clear difference between fuchsia and magenta.
I asked what the hell difference does it make what color your bathroom is painted?
Does it really make a difference as long as the plumbing works? To me, no.
I'm saying that to you, there's no difference between candidates. You are unable to perceive it. To other people, there are differences, even if you think they are only minor.
What would be the point of having fuchsia and magenta if they're both exactly the same?
