The US needs to fix their voting system before they can start voting third party. It's probably even more difficult with Trump
You're more likely to get a socialist revolution than democrats and Republicans getting rid of FPTP at a significant enough level to matter.
That'd be cool
The US needs to vote third party in order to fix the voting system.
It's too rigged
Or is that something we keep telling people who are voting third party?
Nah, doesn't seem like that
Funny though how I see it pulled out so often in response.
Yeah could be a common misconception or a misdirection
Maybe, but third party presidential, when there is no legislators is never going to happen, never going to be elected, and never get any bills passed. Aiming for the white house as the first stop is just silly.
