Daily Infographic: Which Political Party Really Rules America?

That's a complete misnomer--as neither party rules America and both parties do not rule America.

Corrupted US Corporations rule America by BUYING the votes of Congress and we stupidly allowed them to grant this.

By the people has perished from this earth.

Both partys rule the U.S., and they know it. And, they are fine going back and forth for the rest of eternity, because they think you are stupid and will not catch on. Oh, wait! You are stupid. You make me sick you incompetent scum. Nobody wants to think for themselves, so they'll just pick one side to tell them what to think.

Haaaaa..... Just kidding! :D Love ya everbody <3 <3 <3

Another dumb chart that I'm prevented from seeing due to technology -- does anyone know what a 'canvas tag ' is ?

That is a really nice way to display the data…well done Mr. Gonda!

However Gizmowiz and Vectron are correct in there statements about who actually is in charge.

Democracy is the best system of government that money can buy.

Why this is so successful is that it gives the people the illusion that they decide who is making the decisions that affect their lives. However, the two presidential candidates are opposite sides of the same coin. Sure they differ on some issues but on major issues that would really shift the flow of money…like the defence budget for instance…they do not tamper with it.

Angelika Merkel here in Germany is another example of a “do nothing” leader. She has a PhD in Physics and served on the nuclear energy committee under Helmut Kohl. There is no doubt in my mind that the woman is knowledgeable in the field of nuclear power. However, during the entire time the issue of Germany shutting down its nuclear power plants was being debated she did not put forth any initiatives of her own. Also, she did not once mention Thorium energy as an alternative and the LFTR projects that are going on in other nations.

However, because of the way the parliamentary system in Germany works, she was not elected by a popular vote. She was nominated by her party, the CDU, to be the Chancellor because they, the party, got the most votes in the last national election. This is actually like the old “Republic” system in America.

Anyway, ever since she got into power, I never saw her really make any initiative that was clearly her own. Then why is she there? She has never given any sign of really attempting to apply the knowledge I know she has to change things. Then why is she there? The answer to that is that Angelika Merkel is there because she does nothing and will continue to do nothing to alter status quo. The money will still keep flowing in the same pockets as it did before even though it is obvious that things can be improved upon.

Here is another wonderful example of a hypocrite. One of the leading members of the leftist party in Germany( the communists are now called the “leftists” here), Klaus Ernst,may preach about solidarity with the workers however he happens to drive a Porsche and live quite a comfortable lifestyle. He known as “Porsche Klaus”

The crats are pretty much taking over. They are the majority and have been around longer than the tards (gop) which are on their way out. Good cause it's time to let the earth breath.

Very interesting. However, it is debatable whether the two major political parties are actually the same entities or represent the same interests and philosophies as the ones with the same names back before the Civil War. Way back then the Democrats were the "States' Rights" party opposing the intrusiveness of the federal government. The Republicans were the abolitionists who wanted to punish the South.

The political parties have been a product of their times, shifting their alliances and goals over the years to keep ahead of their opponents, currently run by people with wildly different opinions from the long-dead ones who ran things decades ago.

The Republican and Democratic parties more closely resemble professional sports teams, with players and coaches who come and go, but the fans continue to cheer for whoever it is that is wearing the right uniform.

Hi ford2go, canvas is HTML 5 drawing surface. You need a browser that supports HTML 5 or atleast upgrade yours. Safari, Chrome, and Firefox all supports HTML 5.

I think the chart is good, it presents data that one can draw conclusions from. I don't see anything dumb about it.
