Single issue voters like you will put a megalomaniac in the White House, one who will be 100% in lockstep with Bee Bee NuttyYahoo. I'm sure the Palestinians will thank you

We so need ranked choice voting in the U.S. so badly. People could vote their top candidate and/or conscience while recognizing that the second ranked candidate (warts and all) is less damaging to their interests than the third ranked.

We need a lot of things. An end to partisan gerrymandering, to voter intimidation, to illegally purged voter lists, and possibly as you say ranked choice voting. But we have an election coming up in less than 4 months and none of these will pertain. I have to play with the cards I'm dealt.

Understand the wisdom in your comment. All of those things are possible if we win the Senate with Democrats who will abolish the filibuster.

Notice if your candidates, beyond the Pres/VP will do that if elected. Lots of Dems in the House are resigned to 4 more years of Trump.

I will vote for all that I can in good conscience.

We need Dr. Jill Stein. Wouldn't that put a, a, a monkey wrench in the elites' punchbowl?

Dr. Stein will never be president and she's nothing but an egotistical poser and spoiler. She's no different than Ralph Nader, who allowed Bush to become president. There's no Joy in US if Trump wins.

Giving the "elites" their comeuppance, although appealing, is pretty far down my list.

Was Biden not in lockstep with Netanyahu?

Also, can we have a space on the internet where the discourse is above phrases like "bee bee nuttyahoo"? We've got a rich and serious space for journalism here that isnt happening in many other places. It's going to be depressing if the comments devolve into this type of thing in the first week that this site is online.
