    There’s more than two names on the ballot. You can vote third-party.

    (Most of the third-party options also suck.)

      This is not entirely true. There are states that outlaw other parties on their ballots. Do not underestimate the powers that thwart any semblance of democracy.

      Last time I looked, third parties made the major parties look good. None of the candidates seem like people who I want running the country, but major parties can, at least, publish a consistent plan for what they want to accomplish.

        Yeah. I don’t like the Libertarians. I don’t like Jill Stein. The Communist Party of the USA are so useless that they’re endorsing Joe Biden.

        Cornell West is running for president, which is nice, but he’s running as an independent, not with a party.

        I think the best option is Cornell West for president and the Greens for down ballot.
