The system will not change if it's always about that.
You would have thought the Democrats would have learned with Hillary. They didn't. Look what happened.
Now, people can voter shame all they want, but the reality is that people should vote FOR a candidate, not AGAINST a candidate.
that's where third party candidates pick up votes and begin garnering support - Republicans and Democrats, don't really care about voters or they'd pay better attention.
