Creating a third party will create a candidate with low chances of winning and will take votes away from one side or the other which will make the election less genuine than it already is. The two party system has a balance when it functions for the people. Stop the money, and make it work for the people again.
I guess there are good arguments on both sides (third party or reform 2 party system). I'd love to see more discussion on this because it currently seems like the direction this who thing in the U.S. MIGHT be moving.
