But the government is run like a for-profit-business for the profit of those in government and those in the private sector that pay to keep those in government in government.

Obama has turned the government business of giving public funds to business for political personal profit into an art form. To have a successful corporation requires buying off the White House. In turn, the White House will give your company hundreds of millions of dollars and unfair exemptions from regulations your competitors have to pay for.

As example, was Obama personally granting ObamaCare exemption to the Wal-Mart heirs - because they only had about $20,000,000,000.00 each and Obama decided they needed a government bailout exemption for ObamaCare.

Obama is the best friend billionaires ever had.

While the dynamics of what you say is true, this did not start with Obama. He is merely perpetuating it as all good status quo holders would do. Romney will do the same.

It's not a conspiracy, these are the rules under which participation in terms of campaign contributions through participation in televised debates are handled.

What have you accomplished through support of the status quo? Has the status quo been changed?

When you say 'the man' has rigged the system against you, you are talking CT. Pure and simple.

As I have said, nothing will change until people are more interesting in their government that what the Jersey Housewives are doing.

No, that's just logical fallacy right there. Also hyperbole as I never said "the man" has rigged anything. Merely that the laws and regulations governing our election cycle have become skewed in a way as to purposefully keep out the third party candidates. Which is true whether or not you wish to acknowledge reality.

The last sentence is certainly true and one reason (if not THE reason) why the system has degraded as far as it has.

Who made those laws and regulations? Was it 'the man'? Or was it the citizens of this country?

It was the government, unwatched and uncontrolled by the People. This is what government does when left to its own devices.
 
He should go for it. It will open the door for Obama to blast Romney over how he ran his businesses, which was as a ruthless and unprincipled Robber Baron, driving businesses into the ground and destroying jobs.

It's better than huffing so much glue that I actually start to believe supporting the status quo is going to change the status quo.

I'm sure you believe that on several different levels.
