Would a poll about voting major party or third party better reflect the mood of American voters?
The presumption here is that choice of answer would indicate that:
:
1) those who choose to vote for one of the major Parties (Trump or Clinton) are happy with the two-party system.
2) those who choose to vote for one of the third Parties (Johnson, Stein, or another) are doing what they can to change the two-party system.
well, im voting candidate. and i voted 3rd party candidate before....i dont see them as a panacea at all. they too have their agendas and petty bickerings. heck, nader was in 2 or 3 different third parties! i vote candidate, period. and back when talk radio was open and free, one of my favorite hosts was a libertarian. gene burns. i was indy for a long time, now dem.
but guess what? im still me! political parties dont define me, i just go with the ones that suit my values. third parties are just people too.
I was trying really hard not to ask who you would vote for, but whether a different sort of poll might be more reflective of the current mood of America.

What would it take to elect Gary Johnson as president?We may never agree on the small things, but who wants war, tyranny and economic strife? The Demopublicans and Republicrats both want more war, tyranny and government spending. With $16+Trillion in debt, we can't afford more of the same. With the...

This country is the greatest, freest, and most democratic country in the world. We have a constitution and government that the rest of the world aspires to. However, the Democrats and Republicans are politicians and it is politics as usual instead of considering the needs...
