Reply #95: It's saddening to see that third parties will never be of signifigance...

when many Americans think that, before working to promote third party causes, the third party must be established and strong. It's a catch 22 that would forever keep the two party's monopoly on power no matter what. I am involved, and I will continue to be involved but thank you. I agree that the third parties become popular because of ground swell support. But I think the niche candidates also have a place in American politics. I don't think a third party must be popular or widely accepted to qualify it as worth voting for. People should vote their beliefs not whats popular.

"There's no point running an independent candidate until you've built up a nationwide movement..."
What's right is not always popular, what's popular is not always right.
