Party A lies to X supporters in order to get power.
Party B lies to Y supporters in order to get power.
Neither party gives up meaningful government power at the benefit of the citizen.
Both have their "party line" (lies) that they drone out.
This doesn't mean that either side doesn't have well-intentioned people rising up within the party that truly want to make a difference, but they eventually get ground down into being yes-men/women to the party or weirdo outcasts like Rand/Ron Paul who are the party punching bag.
Parties and other oligarchic cliques are what you get in a republic, which your sacred-cow Constitution empowers. Don't treat that anti-majority manifesto like Fundamentalists treat the Bible. It is a straitjacket on our political self-determination.
I don't think any political party is for the little guy. Everything eventually boils down to who has the most money. And that's never the little guy.
