I understand you THINK that is the case. You do not understand first-past-the-post voting, you don't understand electoral college, you don't understand the mentality of the MAJORITY of out-of-touch voters that don't even know what left and right mean. You lack the information needed to effectively champion your alleged cause and you are so bad at it that you are making enemies of the people that would rather stand with you in changing the system so we DO have third parties and your "solution" isn't just an ignorant person's pipedream.
You're saying things, but you're not explaining them. Historically third parties in the USA have had major influence on policy.
I am not American, but let me ask you one thing, is it worth it to take your stand in this election to rest your case in the fact that your vest stays clean - even if this is the last vote that you get?
Because what I can see is that that's precisely what happened in the Weimar years. People could not fully identify with one party so they made their own slightly different one. The only ones however to rarely actually care about policies are the fascists/nazis/right-wingers
The "not an American" gets it.
Sounds like they may again. Idiots will vote for third parties, then the christofascist will win and take over and will enforce it's policy.
