Your naivete is adorable. There is no third option. The best third party candidate since the years started beginning with "19" was H. Ross Perot and that guy got as many electoral votes as I did. Vote third party all you want but you're a fool if you're think you're doing more good than harm. You're like a child who doesn't like carrots and hates broccoli voting for McDonalds. Ya ain't getting McDonalds', kid, and flipping the plate doesn't help anyone but the dogs.

Further, yes. Vote more democrats in. As democrats become the norm, and the center moves to the left, progressive policies and positions *will* become more popular and therefore plausible.
