Re: Kenric Ward's Oct. 14 commentary, "Democrat, GOP stranglehold stifles third party candidates":
Americans are once again being fooled by the false debate between the two major parties. I'm not sure who the bigger fools are -- the Obamaniacs or the McCanaanites. Anyone voting for either Barack Obama or John McCain is voting to continue the status quo of special-interest control over American politics. I truly fear for the future of my country, with an electorate as ill-informed and dumbed-down as ours.
