2016 is our best opportunity at breaking a broken system

This election, everywhere you look, the majority of people are saying the same thing.

"It's either Hillary or Trump, and both suck."

But why?  Why does that HAVE to be true?

Can't we just say... No?

Can't we use this as a chance to break away from a two party system?  Aren't we doing a disservice to our nation by forever limiting ourself by saying it's either Republican or Democrat?

We're so convinced anything else is "throwing our vote away."  Because currently, and unfortunately, it's true.

This would be the perfect opportunity to show that when both candidates are terrible choices, we don't have to pick either.

This election is like the episode of The Simpsons where the choices for President were two tyrannical aliens bent on world domination.

When declaring he'd break away from the traditional two-party system and vote for a third party candidate, one of the aliens stated:

"Go ahead!  Throw your vote away!"

If we know both choices are the wrong ones, and we have the capacity to make a third option...

Why don't we?
