I'm with you I would love to see third party independents rise too. But how does it happen? One party will split like Whigs did into Republicans and we're still left with a two party system. For all you people talking about how a two party system is bad and things can't change in a two party system, how do you prevent a new party from swallowing a former party?
The only way to prevent it is to become a parliamentary democracy and totally re-write our constitution. That's why I don't waste my vote on independents it's a default vote to the more powerful party at the moment.
