My intent is not to bash Trump. I actually think that he's one of the more talented people running for POTUS. This is not to say that I support him or his views (I am voting for Gary Johnson [1]), but I respect his ability to maneuver the media to suit his aims. It is my contention that his strong aptitude with using appropriate/effective language is one of the main reasons he can wield the media around so effortlessly.

So... your throwing your vote away? The two party system is deeply flawed, but when has a third party candidate done anything but taken votes away from reasonable candidates?

If any third party candidate is going to do this in 2016, it is going to be Donald Trump after he and his supporters walk out of the GOP convention.

I'm an independent that lives in NYC. My vote is always a throw away vote.
