Oh, they won’t win, but it is very curious that a position held by a great number of Americans isn’t even represented as a candidate. Of course, the same goes for marijuana legalization and a lot of other things that Biden breaks with the democrats on, but it still is odd that no small party is filling the void.
Sort of like if the British lib-dems were against rejoining the E.U.
Our electoral system only allows 2 party rule mathematically.
First past the post causes the spoiler effect which concentrates votes, we need ranked choice or something similar but the only two parties with any power would have to give up power in order for that to happen.
Our system is in a deadlocked suicide pact. Grid locked for eternity until the inevitable collapse.
