We don't in practice. Two parties get virtually all of the votes. We need a third party with a chance for a serious run in order to restore Conservatism by sending a message to the Republican Party that its base cannot be taken for granted. Leftists apparently feel that a third party candidate like Ralph Nader is a threat to their dominance too.
I'm telling you, John Stossel sounds like he'd get my vote. Both the dems and the Republicans would be in panic mode if he made a serious run. They'd both need to find their base and appeal to it for a change.
And which major party would benefit by your vote for Stossel?

They would?

They were all put in office by the voters, many of whom make up that so-called "base". "It's the voters,...."
Conservatives voting Third Party self fragment and dilute their power across multiple parties....or is that your intention?
