3rd parties have never succeeded in the US. My take? Trying to create a party from the top down simply does not work. Don't just show up every 4 years trying to elect a 3rd party president.
Grassroots is the only way to create a viable party. It's hard, often thankless work. Be prepared to lose and lose again, yet still go on. It takes courage, persistence, and a focus on the long view. Now's the time.

I wish I could find a way to disagree with you, I can't.

#DNC needs new leadership or the US needs a viable #ThirdParty.

I'd say that soon there will be enough disaffected #Democrats and #Republicans to constitute one.

I realize the #Libertarian & #Green parties are out there but they have not garnered enough belief to really move the needle.

All I can say for sure is that #wethepeopleoftheunitedstates have allowed #Trump back in power and we need to fix that at the ballotbox.

"The core of Rossman's claim is this: Brother has released firmware updates that cause printing issues with third-party ink or toners in printers of the company.

[...]

You may notice that something is missing. Right, there is no first-hand proof. Rossman does not appear to have verified the claims, as no information is provided regarding local tests."

Americans do not choose to have only two parties. Our PACs, media, and billionaires choose that for us. #CitizenUnited cements the fact that our choices are binary.

A few places (such as in Alaska) are allowing #RankedChoiceVoting as a path for other parties, but in the end (even there)... We are still dominated by the two parties.

Long, expensive campaigns for Congress and the WH mean that big money needs to back candidates. Big money means one of the two major parties MUST back you financially.

#ThirdParty candidates have almost always been spoilers for the Democrats' success and helped Republicans.

Tell us how to get corruption, big money and billionaires out of our system, and how to convince our corrupt politicians to get rid of the same #CitizensUnited that profitd them... THEN maybe we could have more parties.

Until such time as we can magically make that happen, we will have only two choices.
