Aaaaand, if you go with a third-party off the wall candidate, you get Trump (which to be clear, was one of his points through most of the campaign). Weeeeee nobody wins because you escape the system through a system that wants to be self-perpetuation. Basically. Third parties aren't viable because the system is basically designed and maintained to minimize and neutralize third parties. Extremely rarely, catastrophic events or political issues have been strong enough to unseat one of the established and entrenched parties in US history, but all that ever leads to is a new ass in one of the two seats. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss. And the beat goes on. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family <cite>ParanoidObsessive posted [p:902221888] in A Geektivu...
