Every election at least one, if not multiple alternative/third party candidates enter the contest for POTUS.
In my 56 years of life, Ross Perot is the ONLY alternative candidate to ever appear to have even the slightest chance of winning.
That being said, I think it's carved deeply in stone, surefire lock that the next POTUS will either be from the D or R side of the coin.
Let's not get bogged down in the why, or how much that sucks, or anything like that.
It simply is what it is.
It's a fact that the Next POTUS will be an R or a D. Period.
So based on that, those who insist on voting for anything BUT an R or D will be siphoning votes away from either an R or a D.
The question I'm wondering is, IYHO which R or D candidate will suffer the most from those non-votes?
