Imagine this... A political party draws in pretty much every adult in a country by pretending to be two different parties that hate each other. The two different wings of the same party lure in the masses by staging a mock conflict that gets two very big sides against each other, and the conflict gets people so emotional when they see it happening that they join it. Mobs of people get into the very heated conflict by taking one side or the other. In taking one side or the other side and getting very passionate about the conflict, all of these people are really just moving by the millions into two different entrances to the same political party. It would be the greatest and most effective deception of all time, assuring power for the slippery politicians who are behind it. Could this be happening?

I know that Democrats and Republicans talk very different games, but when it comes down to real action, aren't they very strangely close to being the same thing?

Just a thought. Discuss.
