    It’s not a bug, it’s a feature! (according to the two big parties that routinely get 80% of the votes)

    I don’t vote for third party candidates because they have yet to offer one that has been tested in the crucible of actual real-world politics.

    And predictably, they all vanish into obscurity between elections leaving us to fend for ourselves while they cash in on paid dinners and speeches.

    Not a single one of them has ever walked the walk.

    When they offer someone up that isn’t just promising bullshit that can’t ever work in the real would, I’ll definitely make a strong consideration to vote for them. Until then, I’ll continue to vote for realistic goals over lofty ones.
