There
is Hillary Clinton, and there is Donald Trump. There is no one else besides—it seems—in
the whole drama of election campaigns, as the runner to the oval office in
coming November. On one day Clinton is on the headline, a big colorful
photograph on global newspaper front, with her outshining and bespectacled face
challenging the stance of her opposition, and the other day there would be
Trump responding to the tirade and adding some more of it against her to
continue burning the flames of repudiation and defamation. Clintonian
philosophy and Trumpism are today’s well celebrated neologisms that are essential
to describe the US politics in the heat.
In
the flipside, there is Garry Johnson and there is Jill Stein too, but who knows
since they remain unheard and neglected? The sad and subdued story of those
running for the presidency is never mainstreamed. The third-party candidates
are also excluded from the presidential debates being conducted by Commission
on Presidential Debates (CPD), and supposed to be watched by over 70 million
people worldwide.
While
it is predictably suited to surmise that no one else other than any of the
prominent two will win the election, the equation, however, of their respective
ballot-gains would be disrupted should Garry and Jill are given chances to speak upfront.
It is because there are Americans who dislike the idea of seeing both Clinton
and Trump as a president, and yes there are still some more Americans who are
already in line with the alternative parties opining differently to the
democratic or the republic. The odds will be that the proportion of the votes
will be distributed more to the sidelined candidates if they are rendered to be
heard and read through the debates and the mainstream news media.
Simply
non-inclusive orthodoxy is nothing less than undemocratic and un-American way
of practicing democracy, and it is also an awkward irony to let the world see
how the most democratic country of the world is fostering the freedom and
liberty that includes right to information and to the speech. They might have
good issues and Americans should not be thwarted from their rights to hear what
their leaders—all of’em—have, as differences, in plans to forward their country
in the modern era. Thus far muted ideologies of Garry and Jill are not there
waiting to go benighted in the future past. Clinton or Trump whoever it might
be, the win will be more graciously acclaimed if they now play role to debunk
the policy veils that fence all-encompassing platform to speak up in the open
and which might be equally disseminated across the corners.
