That's a little too far for America, unfortunately.
It's way too far in any capitalist country. These shithead will send armies of cops if you do that.
The closest the U.S. has ever had to a socialist candidate becoming president, he was in prison at the time. And even then, he barely got any votes comparatively speaking.
