"A plague o' both your houses!"

"This is a famous quote from Romeo and Juliet, link.
As Mercutio dies, he utters this phrase three times,
cursing the families whose rivalry led to his death.

The phrase is commonly applied to criticize warring factions
whose rivalry brings ruin to others. "

Government of the Party, by the Party, and for the Party
is not the same thing as government of the people,
by the people, and for the people.

Partisan politics cannot serve the interests of the whole.
Partisan politics sustain Party politics.
Party politics sustains Parties, not people.

What about the people's politics?

Do we really need someone to tell us who to vote for?
Do we really need someone to write our agenda?

All we really need is, a champion.
