       I think it is unlikely that a 3rd Party will have much success
       in the next POTUS election cycle.  Also, until we have a
       systemic collapse of the economic system, I see political
       upheaval as unlikely as well.  As long as they keep handing out
       stimulus money and rent & mortgage payment moratoriums and the
       money still works to buy food at the superstore and gas at the
       pump, it will remain mostly BAU.

       I agree.  The Merican public remains too ignorant than to want a
       better way.  The 'third party' is another Gregorian chant just
       like 'get rid of the Electoral College.  I have been hearing
       that singsong for fifty years.  Another movement that will
       continue to continually masturbate the mind of people with
       better things to do.  I do have a suggestion, read on.  For as
       long as we have left.  Third party thought masterbate the mind.
       Nothing will happen.  Until reality kicks people hard enough
       they will grab and scream vainly trying to hold on to BAU as
       long as they can.  They won't want to change a thing.  Until it
       is too late.
       Along our descent into oblivion some people will type in lament.
       When people can't hold on any longer.  It will be too late.
       We need a revolution.

       Synchronicity or coincidence, this morning I was thinking about
       'Gregorian Chant'..
       I didn't want to be negative on this question, but the only
       independent candidates to get anywhere need to have huge
       finances like Ralph Nader or Trump. The media doesn't focus in
       primaries coverage around who raised the most money for nothing.
       The media also frames the performance of candidates with whether
       they need to move further to the right or further to the left
       etc. Can your candidate overcome political pundits saying they
       didn't "tick all the boxes" like trump did? Not without a
       fortune to spend.
       The media are past the fake news and at the "how many fingers,
       Winston?" stage now. On the left, just one example is Hunter
       Biden giving University lectures on media disinformation. He
       will open his laptop for the presentation and audiences will not
       giggle or even smirk. If it looks, walks, and quacks like a
       duck, then a duck is Russian Disinformation.
       On the right, heres an example of being told several times to
       ignore your eyes and ears and accept what he tells you that they
       said:
  HTML https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/tucker-carlson-the-lefts-mask-fetish-and-why-they-think-vaccine-hesitancy-should-be-a-felony
       Since some of you will have missed it, Bidens spokesperson
       explains why he wore the mask on the zoom call, to avoid
       transmission with others in the room, not others on the call.
       Carlson ignores that and tells you they did not give that
       reason. He then goes on to say Biden walking outside with a mask
       on is all that matters and says the reason Biden explains he did
       that was not explained. That is straight after showing Biden
       explaining he was doing this to show himself taking it off
       outside and he will put it back on before going outside. Tucker
       tells you to ignore that and Biden wearing a mask outside for
       any length of time means he must wear it outside at all times,
       despite just seeing him not doing that.
       "The Green Party’s name unfortunately leads many to view it as a
       niche environmental party that sidelines other pressing issues,
       like the cost of health care, housing and education. That means
       that fewer people identify with it and take the time to learn
       more."
       That answer to why not another third party like the greens was
       backwards. It's not only that people see them as only
       environmental and ignore the rest of their policies. I stopped
       voting for them for the opposite reason; having the rest of
       their platform was worse than having ongoing environmental
       destruction.

       Is Biden's plans going to work? Is taxing those over $400,000
       and his other $ making plans going to pay for a revitalized
       middle class? Is the Paris Climate Accord enough or too little?
       "No more trickle down...it's from the GRASS ROOTS UP!"?
       Vaccinations, Unions, "buy American", immigrant help, law
       enforcement reform, and a new grid, etc.... Is this going to
       make America great again?
       I have stopped going to TPP Zoom meetings, and I am monitoring
       their email announcements, I am adding nothing now, just waiting
       and watching.

       That's a pity, I'm sure your input was worthwhile. I'll admit I
       haven't looked at the website, but the flyer you posted didn't
       mention shrinking the military footprint to pay for any of it,
       which it could. I noticed that they said much of their
       experience comes from being former Democrats, whose bipartisan
       support starts every war and fuels it with rhetoric such as
       trump being controlled by Putin. The right returns that with
       saying Biden is controlled by china and pushed around by Putin.
       Each side claims the other is not tough enough, for not starting
       ww3 when in office. Maybe TPP former Democrats haven't changed
       in that regard.
