Joycelyn Elders (1933 - )
Sun Aug 13, 1933
Dr. Joycelyn Elders, born on this day in 1933, is an American pediatrician and public health administrator who served as Surgeon General of the United States from 1993 to 1994. Elders was the first African American to serve as Surgeon General and is best known for her frank discussion of her views on controversial issues such as drug legalization, masturbation, and distributing contraception in schools.
Although she faced censure from the Clinton administration for advocating the legalization of drugs, it was her sex positive view on masturbation that led to her removal from office. After stating "I think that [masturbation] is part of human sexuality, and perhaps it should be taught", Clinton forced her to resign as Surgeon General in December of 1994. She is currently a professor emerita of pediatrics at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences.

That's a false dichotomy, there are other political options outside the two factions (republicans and democrats) of the US Bourgeoisie party.
Not with FPTP, there isn't.
