I hope they remember the folly of the other third parties, if this is the path they are heading toward.

Whatever you do, DO NOT RUN FACE FIRST INTO A PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.

Gain support, Gain local Seats, gain state seats, gain federal seats. But for the love of all that is sane and rational, do not run for the Presidency until you are certain it will be a winner.

Nothing breaks faith in political parties like repeated lost candidacies for the presidency.
