There is no arguing the history, a third party candidate will probably cost someone the election and that person will likely be the candidate they are most akin to. Perhaps the electoral college isn't the only problem. Perhaps it's our conditioned notion that we have 2 choices and we must align ourselves with one of the two even before the fight begins. I think most American's vote this way. I have no idea who I'll support in the upcoming election? Likely, nobody. I may vote.. but "support" means something entirely different.

I'd support "Teddy Roosevelt".
