    Until third parties have a presence at the national level it’s stupid to vote for one for president.

    If you think Democratic presidents don’t get anything done with a Republican Congress just wait until both sides of both houses refuse to work with a third party president.

      This is what I’ve been saying. Even if a third party somehow managed to win the Presidency, they still can’t do anything if Congress doesn’t play ball. And knowing Congress, they’re not going to. There’s zero base for a third party President to stand on because none have made the effort to win seats in the House and Senate.

        And that’s not even taking into account the judges who get to rule on things, who have all been appointed by one of the two parties. Even if Congress works with them a judge can just throw it out.
