Whoops, didn't mean to actually influence anyone.
I am glad to see though so many Mustachians are in favor of trying to make third parties more viable, even at the "expense" of not voting for someone who everyone else will and seeming something of an oddball because of it.
Many other people I've discussed the idea with don't seem to grasp why our country might be better off with more than two choices, or merely hate the other parties candidate so much (often quite blindly, without actual reason) that they can't fathom not voting for the main individual they are against.
I suppose that's why many of us are here though, the ability (or unwillingness?) to accept the status quo of society for our own lives.
I will say though that I understand people in battleground states deciding to vote for one of the two main candidates. I still won't, but I respect that decision. (And, of course, anyone who votes for one due to actual reasons, rather than thinking one color - red or blue - is better than the other.)
No offense - or influence - intended with the thoughts in this post.
