Re: Ralph Nader
there is some voter fatigue, so remembering 14 candidates positions and values becomes a lot more work than tracking 2 guys, especially if you're busy (i'm not saying that's my personal take, but an example), and the 3rd parties here tend to try to get elected president first, instead of looking to win local/state seats, then house seats, then get a senator or two...
most presidents are ex-senators or governors...
