There are a couple of reasons that some Americans consider a 3rd party. Ignorance is one. Some people think that they can create a 3rd party out of a bunch of angry losers and crackpots and get a better deal. Dirty tricks is another. Democrats try to split the republican party by suggesting that the parties are the same. Nothing could be further from the truth. Laziness is the 3rd reason. Some Americans would rather dream of a political miracle than actually work to get better candidates. And the last reason is fear. Some people are afraid to support issues they believe in. The left has pulled out all the stops in it's crusade against innocent Tea Party people who carry around a copy of the Constitution and it has made some people fearful of ridicule.
