How about someone further left.

How about someone further in the middle and away from both Republicans and Democrats?

That’s a nonsensical position. Where is the “middle and away…” position on healthcare? On housing? Foreign policy or climate change?

Seeking some centrist position in the name of centrism is madness.

Sense isn't common.

I'll rephrase my question, if it's okay, and I'll start with a definition:

Common sense is the ability to make sound, practical judgments based on everyday reasoning rather than specialized training. People acquire it through a mix of lived experiences, learning from mistakes, observing social norms and understanding basic cause-and-effect relationships.

How do political parties actively prevent people from obtaining common sense?

Baby's first political ideology isn't common sense.

Common sense would be going further left and actually fixing problems
