Independent is one thing, but Libertarian is just another party. Even if
there were a real viable 3rd party, a 3 party system is still not a
real choice. The point of Jesse Ventura's book Democrips and Rebloodlicans
is that we need to get rid of political parties all together. Not only
would people be forced to investigate each candidate, but no one would
have to toe the party line either. In some countries low voter turnout
renders an election invalid. So not voting (or rather a vote of no
confidence as I like to think of it) can effect change.
