no, i didn't.
I specifically meant the last 4 years.
"The third party candidates are unfiltered BS candidates that are neither experienced nor prepared to lead"
source?
it sounds like you're just making this up, since lots of third-party candidates are good candidates who can't get ahead because of the corrupt us electoral system.
"stopping the wars started by the GOP".
uhhhh hahahaha! get out of here, it's amazing you can type that right now, I see you hid it between a bunch of other bad points, but boy is this the wrongest of them all.
"only to gather attention and draw votes away from Dems."
so you're 12 or you've never paid attention to US politics before.
third party candidates are historically more devoted to all of the things you have listed above, job creation, union support, minimum wage, corporate taxes, they are good candidates with good policies who get screwed because of the US electoral system.
they are not political distractions, your narrow-minded ignorance is.
