    I would also like to know what other option there is that has a viable chance at getting at least a plurality of the votes. Maybe I will vote for them. Maybe we all will if you tell us who it is.

      Ah that ol’ catch 22.

      Won’t vote for a party until they’re viable, but they’ll never be viable because you’ll never vote for them.

        Since you won’t tell us who it is, how can we vote for them? I mean, I can cast my vote for Mickey Mouse if you think it will help, but I’d prefer to have a name of someone actually running.

          Man you’re trying really hard to get worked up about being told you have more options.

          Enjoy doing nothing, I’m sure things will eventually improve!

            I’m not worked up. It’s just that the reports of my psychic powers have been greatly exaggerated.

              No, I’m just not playing your bullshit game.

              You want me to propose an alternative so you can try and pick it apart instead of focusing on the original point that there are alternative options out there, this is purely an issue of people not choosing them.

        This is a fundamental flaw with plurality voting. Fix that and we can talk about third parties.

          You’re not going to reform voting under a Democrat.

          So first step would be to stop voting them.

            You’re not going to have voting under a republican, and that’s what you get if you don’t vote democrat.
