This is being spawned off after the topic regarding Trump's statement.

I really don't understand it: Independents/3rd party candidates know they won't win the election. They also know they help ruin the chances of the party they split from. So what gives?

See: Perot, Nader, etc

Because, even though independents do not win, they often influence the outcome and public debate.
