Want third parties to get in? Then change the FPTP system you love so much.

No, we just need to remove the barriers put in place in allowing ballot access.  Switching away from FPTP without changing ballot access still leaves the third-parties severely disadvantaged by the two dominanting parties.

the winner-take-all system forces people into massive camps.  a third party or third parties could never thrive under the current electoral system, regardless of how easy it is to get on the ballot.
