If nobody votes 3rd party then we'll never have a 3rd party candidate that matters.
It's like bicycle infrastructure. Nobody wants to ride bikes on a highway, but you won't see bike riders until there's a trail somewhere for them to ride on. You can say it never matters and that there aren't any cyclists out there, but you're wrong. I think there's a lot of Americans looking for another party right now.
Under FPTP, we'll never have a 3rd party candidate that matters.
The 2-party system is a direct, mathematical result of FPTP + time.
