    Then you want election reform, taking the form of ranked voting. The US currently utilizes a First Past The Post system coupled with an Electoral College. The only outcome in this system is a 2 party dynamic. If you want a viable 3rd party, you want election reform.

      Until the states push to amend the constitution, ranked voting (aka, instant runoff) will never become law as long as the 2 big parties maintain their stranglehold on our central government. They have too much to lose.
