    So, it didn’t solve the problem? I’m not sure what you’re driving at here. I’m not saying there shouldn’t be multiple parties, I’m saying the vote during our presidential election, under our current system, is a strategic one, not one to throw away on a third party.

      It’s solved many problems.

      The point that the American historians quoted above are making is that if you enjoy certain policies, like being able to vote for senators, women’s rights, or progressive taxation, thank a third party voter.

        Your quote talks about how third parties brought about some changes. At no point did I say third parties have no place in us politics, nor did I say never vote for third parties.

          Not voting or voting third party for POTUS does nothing. It’s just pure vanity.

            So, you don’t understand that the POTUS election is not the entirety of the us political system? I’m not sure what I’m supposed to say here, you quoted two very obviously different things.
