I'm thinking a grassroots campaign and massive press will do the job. The right combination, plus the adverts and the push, and people would do it. If voter turnout was at 90% in the next election, and no Republican or Democrat won, that would be so excellent.
Heh heh. And how would you fund such a massive campaign? Who would be your 'sponsers'? And what special aggendas would your (hypothetical) presidency entail in order to keep them happy?
Bi-partisan politics are a joke.
"ok fools...uh, I mean, folks. You want the rich capitalists on the left to run your country? Or the rich capitalists on the right? It's up to YOU!"
