The parties have been sabotaging any means of the voting system to change. So you are saying that something that is up to the parties need to change which they will not allow to change, such that you can vote third party. That to me just sounds like an excuse to not vote third party, like when people say that they will only do something when an event that they know won't happen occurs such that they can have no accountability.

This sabotage is why I keep saying that third parties need to be realistic and stop focusing on the Presidency, instead focus on the jobs that make the laws, the ones that can remove the barriers for third parties while demonstrating why they're the better party.
