Fact is there is no limit on the number of parties we can have. You need enough signatures to get on the ballot. The problem is support and money ... why do we still have two .. because they control the cash and can push their candidates all over the media. Jesse Ventura got elected to governor as a third party candidate. What we need is very qualified people to run and the dollars to make the third party candidate a real force. It always comes back to the same two choices each time. Because third party candidates now are only running on a single issue because they know they can't win. That is why you see the green party or save the rain forest party etc ... they just want to make a point. We need real candidates to break this two party system
