Why wait for the major parties to replace the system that keeps them in power? Why shouldn't the people vote for a third party that truly strives to represent their views? Just because the major parties say they can't, tie things up in the courts, and make up some bullshit to justify it? Why should the people remain committed to a system that sells them out to the highest bidder and erodes their rights no matter who is in power?
How do you know a progressive third party couldn't also sway many Republican voters just as it does Democrat voters, by revealing just how corrupt and ineffective both major parties are, teaching the people how the other parties' answers will fail them and have failed them in the past, and making an honest effort to stand up for working class interests?
