That’s just dumb. Vote against the worst probable outcome. The idea of democracy is consensus. If your alternative doesn’t reach consensus, it’s just a spoiler against the less bad option. If we had ranked choice voting it would be a different story, but we don’t, so it isn’t.
How many times does a Republican have to win before you get it? Vote strategically, and find your alternatives outside the election. Protest voting is impotent posturing that risks the worst outcome with literally no material.benefit.
What else is new? The leftists of the US have no influence on foreign policy. Throwing their vote away on an “alternative” which will, at most, get single percent results doesn’t make the US leave the rest of the world alone. In fact, it draws votes away from the slightly less terrible party, which makes it a net loss. If you want the US to leave the rest of the world alone, the last thing you want is for leftists to vote third party.
You’ve had multiple people now explain to you why your strategy is stupid and counterproductive. If you’re still going on about this, you’re either trolling or stupid.
And? He lost the primary and he didn’t run third party. His endorsement of Hillary proves my point.
My point is, look for alternatives instead of voting for something you don’t want. That’s the idea of democracy.

I’m just glad I live in a country with multiple voting options.
Yeah that would be nice. Not the present reality for Americans though.
I’d be fine with this, but the US is still not leaving the rest of the world alone.

You want your crappy lesser evil “strategy” to be accepted by sane people? Never.

Non-viable alternatives aren’t alernatives.
Who tells you what’s viable?
