Coda, isn't there a flaw in your argument? If enough people believe in A, C, and E and then vote for the candidate who believes in A, C, and E, won't that candidate win? That hardly seems counterproductive, but too many people think that there's no way a third party will win so they don't vote for them no matter if they will support their beliefs the best.

I would say that if enough people were educated (maybe via informative campaigning) then maybe enough people would vote for a third party for them to win? I suppose that's silly considering how many uninformed people vote, I guess.

Just me thinking intuitively here, I might be way off.
