That is why the 5% is important. Obviously the election is over, but I think most people would agree that America's political views can not be accurately represented with anything less than a four party system.
Getting a third party into the debates is the most important step to accomplishing that, and for that to happen you need that 5%. I predict this will occur by 2024.

I don't. I know that there will be a major shift in political party's positions on many issues, but people view political and economic situations in black and white. If anything, your libertarian/anarchistic view would become absorbed by either mainstream party if the political stance persists. If it happens, however, I will willingly consider a person like Jill Stein or Gary Johnson (though I often thing the Green Party is loaded with wishful thinking).

Even if half the country wrote in the same candidate that person would still lose, and there vote would essentially be unrecognized in most states. I'd rather vote for a candidate that represented my ideas and was seeking election.
