Charles Maxham isn’t really running for President – he’s running to make a protest that our political system is an established system. He is right that the system is heavily tilted in favor of people within the system, but he seems to think this is a result of some evil conspiracy. The fact is that it is a system which has developed over time so that there is a certain equilibrium and a huge amount of inertia that makes change difficult. I won’t argue that the system is perfect, or that it should just remain as it is, but it is normal. If you want a system that is more responsive you must have a smaller system.
If Charles Maxham wants to change our country he should start with something smaller so that he understands the system better. Perhaps he will come to appreciate how natural our current political reality is and will be better prepared to make changes to it.
