Seriously now, 3rd options?
 

Hey guys,

Is there an actual third option, with half a chance? :dunno: The way it looks now, there isn't. :rolleyes:

:huddle

Consensus is no.

:bawling:

Thanks, I was afraid of that. What a crappy place to be in.

I thought Ryan threw his hat in the ring :dunno:

That's right. Did he ever get MLG to go for the VP?? That would be alright!
:thumbup:

I've thrown my hat into the ring but I've not got the call as of yet :dunno:

Half a chance of what?

A candidate or party does not have to win the election in order to cause change. Many ideas for change have come from third parties and were later adopted by the Democrats and/or Republicans.

For example, most of FDR's "New Deal" including minimum wage and social security were originally propsed by the American Socialist Party more than a decade earlier.

A more recent example of a third party candidate having a big effect on the issues is when Ross Perot ran for president, and made the national debt. a major issue.

Just because they do not win does not mean they do not have influence. The more votes they get, the more influence they will have. So vote for the candidate you like rather than voting for who you think may win.

Still debating, limited down to:

- MLG
- MD

One of the few items E and I agree fully on.

I voted Perot at the end of that fiasco (I know), and intend to vote Ron Paul-(wait a minute, Paul hasn't made the ballot). Unless I write in Ryan and MLG that is!

BUT it would be nice to get a real 3rd candidate to actually challenge the system. One that might even be invited to a debate. The General public is so ignorant.

Barr and Paul are both worthy, but where is their affect. They have achieved 0 mass media in the last month. This is where they should shine; NO? (Evil mass corporate government greed has collapsed Wall Street and tremored through half the modern countries)

On a side note: Looks like the American Socialist Party is about to have it's 2nd best decade.
