That's a big bowl of horsehshit, the best way to fix a broken electoral system, be it in America or elsewhere, is to support a candidate who wants that system changed, even if they have no chance of winning.

Bad sign you only have one.

NGL seems like a nice dude, but nobody knows who he is and people like Biden for some reason.

He needs to remedy that or he needs to GTFO.

Well didnt Yang run as part of the Democrat party? Or is he like Sanders and is technically an independent? I know very little about the man.

Trump is conceited, self-important and vain. He is also the only stable choice the American people have. The Democrats are just petty obstructionist, and Biden is the trojan horse of dangerous leftist and Marxist ideas. People around the world are tired of do-nothing, know-nothing politicians. It was true in 2016, and it will be true in 2020. I know who I'd vote for.

I'm not American though, so what do I know?

It is a good idea, but 3rd party voting is a much better one.

Voting third party is totally fine, not voting is allowing other people to make he choice for you, thus tossing out you're right to complain from any moral high ground.

Tried and failed spectacularly.

But comparing Corbyn to Biden is lunacy.

Basic knowledge of what a Marxist is contradicts that whole sentence.

NGL seems like a nice dude, but nobody knows who he is and people like Biden for some reason.

He needs to remedy that or he needs to GTFO.

Howie's done a pretty aggressive job of campaigning among leftist circles. He's got the dream of creating a united Left, winning the Green Party and Socialist Party nominations, and fighting for the nomination of the Peace and Freedom Party, and various parties active only in specific states. But if anything, it's earned him ire from many leftists, who are suggesting he's doing election fraud. One of the Green Party candidates, Dario Hunter, is going to run an independent presidential campaign in protest.

And yes, he hasn't done much outreach outside of leftist circles, which is very problematic.

Hmm, I don't want to make any assumptions, but when I say leftists, I don't mean the left wing of the Democratic party, I mean all of the leftists who belong to a bunch of fragmentary, hippie parties that have no hope of getting elected like Peace and Freedom. So it's not even the mainstream left he's working with.

They don't care about winning them over. Leftists believe in slaughtering people who disagree with them to create paradises like the Soviet Union or Pol Pot's Cambodia.

You should tell the millions of Cambodians who were killed during Pol Pot's purges that communism is actually okay because AmEriKKAn ImPeRiALiSm.

Allegiations of American support for the Khmer Rouge are just that, allegations.
