:: With all due respect a third party is an astonishing dumb idea :

1825: “The Whigs have been in political power in the past and they have broad support in both the North AND South. We shouldn’t swap horses in midstream (to use an 1825 colloquialism).”

The Whig party was basically formed as a "second" party to oppose the democratic party...not a third party...

I might add this isn't 1825...it's 2014 where money is the tool of power not political principles...

I'm not opposed to a third party in principle, but it's doomed to fail for lack of money...
