That's kinda backwards man. What if they're affiliated with a party but claim independant in OK?
Oklahoma Is the most Backasswards state in the union.
Ok will not recognize any affliation other then Dem or Repub. and to even get on the ballot as an independent you have to have more signatures then California does. I think its like 30% of the registered voters in oklahoma.

No offense CM Fan, but that last sentence is so broad it could be applied to most anything. The scientific method (perhaps broadly defined) does and has worked.
E-M theory,
transistors,
lasers,
atomic theory...all developed using more-or-less the scientific method.
Insights, revelation and inspiration are important, but they are usually based on evidence from the scientific method, and then confirmed using the scientific method.
