    A third party can't exist in the middle as the bases of both existing parties would tear into it, plus such a bland agenda would not draw enthusiastic support.
    Here you can see the one dimensional fallacious mind of a leftist sycophant. This slime bag is as much irrelevant unrelatable douche as John Boehner and as polar opposite. This guy, total faggot and dressed up as a wild man. Boehner closeted faggot dressed up like cookie cut over the hill alterboy.

    As i was saying before, your thoughts are one dimensional, left or right and everything in between. But there's a second third and fourth dimension of thought in the real world. This middle nonsense you puke about shows your mind needs three more dimensions before it could even possibly make it out of a wet paper box.

    Centrist? How about transcendentalist?

    Centrists are just whores. Theres no proof between two points that this is where the truth of a matter can be found. Your piddly little mind cant even begin to understand that tho.

    The only real problem with a third party is that it requires a constituentcy that isnt just idiotic lower life forms. America just cant fit that right now.

    Doubtful since they control the Democratic party. Meanwhile, the Republican party has been destroying itself for 20 years. What's left is now the Party of Trump.

    The next best thing for sane, honest and patriotic conservatives is the Libertarian Party. It needs some work, but the more people who join it, the better it will become.

    The nation is polarized, not homogenized.

    Also, if it's successful, are we prepared to have every presidential election determined in the House of Representatives?
    That would inevitably have to happen. Nobody would receive a majority of the electoral votes.

    Coalition government could work, maybe even well, but people should understand what it entails before embracing it.
    One would think that it's incredibly disappointing that with two major political parties, at least one of them would be advocating for freedom and liberty for the people. Instead, what we have is those same two parties doing their utmost to limit or remove those liberties and freedoms, all with the unabashed support from it's base members
    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

    hatred for Trump is the only thing that unified you demmycunts........it will all fall apart by 2022 without him.......

    as for the Republican Party destroying itself, I see a party that got more votes in 2020 than it ever has before......and its all issue oriented.......

    You view these rugged individualist freedom lovers as some sort of majority when in reality, they're just a few, mouth-breathing knuckle draggers like yourself. STU.
    Most Americans prefer civilization.

    You should be grateful for our constitution--I'm not, by the way--but you should be because it gives conservatives like yourself serious OVER-REPRESENTATION as a percentage of the population.
    If you need a more anti-government party than the present Republicans, I don't know what to tell you.
    The most likely choice for a new third party will be a Democratic Socialist Party to the left of the current Democrats.

    You probably don't go to places like New York or Los Angeles much.
    There are huge numbers of left-leaning voters there.
    Lots and lots of us.

    You have that already in the Green Party. Is it simply a matter of rebranding them?

    We have lots of frivolous and irrelevant small political parties--whether you number them third, fourth, fifth, or whatever.

    We're discussing the possibility of a third Major Party developing---one that can actually win statehouse seats, congressional seats, and maybe a serious run at the White House as a contender, not a spoiler.

    That would be very hard to do, but some are saying that the time is coming for it.

    I'm skeptical, but I'd love a serious, viable party to the left [economically more than socially] of the centrist Democrats.
    I just don't expect to see one, because even with enthusiasm from the ideological standpoint, from the financing standpoint, it's a huge task.

    The Green Party platform is what you claim to desire. And at least in the Bay Area you get Green Party members elected to local offices. If your goal is a third party with a more leftist platform, it already exists. So either you need to boost the existing Green Party or rebrand in a different fashion.

    I would vote third party at times, till Trump, then my conscience told me I could not vote for him because he was a moron. My conscience was right.

    The Green Party is a non-entity here in Massachusetts.

    We have a huge Democratic Party which is too much of a big tent as many incompatible views reside within it.
    Most of us are economically left, but we have some economic centrists as well.

    The latter tend to vote for RINO Republican governors, even though the voters themselves are registered Democrats.
    They won't vote for Republican legislators, though, thankfully.

    On social issues, however, we're really split between woke and un-woke Democrats.
    Gloria Allred types don't thrive in downtown Boston, although they exist in the burbs.
