In this video Heimler walks you through Unit 5 Topic 5 (5.5) of the AP Government curriculum which is all about third parties.
Third parties are often called the conscience of the nation because more often than not, they form around narrow interests that are being neglected by the major parties. Unfortunately, because we have a two party system, it is unlikely that a third party will ever run a winning candidate. The first reason is that we have a winner-take-all system which prevents third parties from getting a foothold in the electorate. Second, the two major parties often absorb the popular parts of the third party's platform into their own platform.
