If you are looking for "perfect," don't look in politics. It will always be "the lessor of the two evils," because there are always two parties, and they will always both contain some evil. And don't start with the advantages of a third party--which managed to elect Bush over Gore and then Trump over Clinton. No matter what you say, the world would be a drastically better place ,with thousands less dead, if Gore and Clinton had been our presidents. The way to accomplish change is to 1) Get active in the Democratic Party and force change from within; and 2) Exert pressure from outside through political organization and action. In the meantime, we vote for whom we must. Actually, I don't know if any meaningful change has ever been accomplished without non violent, direct action--like the civil rights sit ins, the HIV obstructions, union strikes, etc. My sister was a Freedom Rider, went to jail for change. But you know that Dr. King still supported voting for Johnson. Write to us from jail about all your moral purity and maybe it will mean something.
