    I’m worried that the only way to actually make positive change is to put one of the minor parties in charge.

    We tried that. The, once minor, Reform Party was given chance for the first time in 2006 and we gave them a second try in 2011. I’m not sure anything changed.

    Trouble is, once a party takes charge, they are fundamentally no longer minor and naturally become just like all the rest. You haven’t accomplished anything.

    What you really want to do is elect a representative who works for you, not for his labour union (i.e. the party). As the employer, choosing your employee based on their union affiliation is, quite frankly, strange.
