    Basically, as far as I can tell, your argument is that as long as there is an honest candidate running third party, all the people who are not voting now will vote and vote for this person, along with a lot of the people who would normally vote Democrat and/or Republican, giving them enough votes to beat both the Democratic and the Republican candidate and thus gain the presidency. And then they will change the voting laws, presumably somehow unilaterally, to ensure that people like this candidate will get voted into office, which is a ‘future influences the past’ thing I don’t understand.

    This is based on so many evidence-free assumptions that I agree, I can’t argue with your faith. So I guess we are, in fact, done here.
