The point was that it has always been more than two parties regardless of
chances of winning.  Unfortunately, the media et al will not allow the other
parties a fair chance.  Candidates have not been invited to a debate since
"they will not get more than 10% of the vote".  They certainly won't now!  It
really sucks.  Even if a candidate would be the worse president even, they
 just might come up with something that is a good idea (or make the other 
candidates squirm).
