Thrid party candidates have NO chance to win . The ONLY thing that fringe parties do, do, is to help elect someone, whom they do NOT want elected at all.

The ONLY countries, where a fringe party has any say so, is a parlimentary one. Since the USA is a REPRESENTATIVE REPUBLIC , fringe parties can weild NO power, whatsoever ; not now, not ever !

True, third party candidates aren't likely to win outright.

However, a vote for a conservative third party candidate is noted by the Republican leadership, and will be considered in the NEXT election's platform.

If given the choice between a liberal Democrat or a liberal Republican?

I would rather point the way I want to go than to give my blessing to a lie.

That's not entirely true. Here in Southern California, Ray English of Descanso (San Diego County), won reelection to the Descanso Community Planning District.

Really!

You mean that anyone who's neither a Republican nor a Democrat has no power?

That's ghastly!
