Would you ever leave the 2 party system and vote for a 3rd party candidate?

if bernie would have went independent, you betWould you ever leave the 2 party system and vote for a 3rd party candidate?
First, we need to mobilize the local and state governments behind said third party. Picking some wackadoo to run for President doesn't make much sense in practical terms. It would make more sense to build a nationwide movement at the state level prior to pushing for a third-party President in this day and age.
That's never going to happen. We care too much about Netflix, smart phones, tablets, and video game consoles. Everything is going to remain the same.

According to the recently released FBI report, saying that makes you a hostile threat to our country and is violating the integrity of our election process.

I hope you're wrong, and you should too.

Considering we just easily had the worst 2 candidates in US history and people still voted for 1 or the other.......yeah we are stuck with the 2 party system.
Trump did prove an outsider can come in and with a movement behind him take over a party and then the Presidency despite having both parties, the MSM, and not even close to the funding of the opposition. It really is a miracle that he won given the odds. So there is some silver lining to all of this.
This is so true. There seems to be far too much focus on the President when this question is raised when it’s in the various levels of congress and senate where multi-party and party-independent elements will bring the most benefit.First, we need to mobilize the local and state governments behind said third party.

I would love to see 3-4-5 parties.
I don't want to see Congress choosing the President how can we go third party with 270?
What on earth are you talking about.

Kobie...sorry, not the FBI. From the Office of the Director of National Intelligence in their "damning" report they just released.
"In an effort to highlight the alleged "lack of democracy" in the United States, RT broadcast, hosted, and advertised third-party candidate debates and ran reporting supportive of the political agenda of these candidates. The RT hosts asserted that the US two-party system does not represent the views of at least one-third of the population and is a "sham.""

Convention of states.
Then change the process to where the most delegates wins.
That's almost how this will play out. While Trump is being sworn in as PINO of the USA, the Republican caucus leaders and Joint Chiefs of Staff will be meeting to formulate contingency plans. Trump's leash will be so short that by the end of his term he'll be a figurehead doing what Congress directs and the position of President will be a popularity contest for celebrities and a body-of-work reward for old politicos.
Your post made it seem as if the FBI was claiming that. Not so much, I see.
Such a change would be like inviting third Parties, who's going to do it?
The real test will be jobs, will he continue the steady job growth we've seen under Obama, will he increase it?
I like The President on a short leash.
Yes they should have contingency plans you know they have them for you and me.
No change means no Trump so this will be ok but I'd rather a successful Trump.
We need 3rd parties.

Yeah...that's what I said in the post you quoted. I conflated the FBI report and the new DNI report. The point stands, though. Supporting 3rd party makes you a hostile actor against our nation.
