Sorry, Sun, but you don’t build 3rd parties in primary elections.

The time for a 3rd party to gain name recognition is in the general election. That is the time to vote and have your vote accomplish something.

When has that ever happened. Don't say that's how the Republican party started. When Lincoln won the Whigs were gone, morphed into the Republican party. The Republicans didn't win anything as a third party. Support grew for the (R) between elections, not as a third party spoiler. Republicans won when the Whigs were history.
