Yeah...They co-opt the issue to get elected, then ignore it afterward.The biggest service I see third parties doing is to talk about issues that make the mainstream parties reluctant to address. When the issue could be enough to throw the election one way or another, one of the major parties co-opts that issue and the third party becomes history.
Bernie & Tulsi should go Green Party--It's been tried a few times in US history, but rarely amounts to anything measurable. In the event that it does, the so-called third party is quickly subsumed by one or parts of both major parties. This is as it will be and should be.

I did a posting on this some time back. I found out that:
51 MILLION Americans are eligible, but do not register to vote
Why Are 51 Million Eligible Americans Not Registered to Vote? | Demos
Add that number to the registered voters who do not vote and the figure is over 100 MILLION
As more and more Americans become apathetic to the choices and fed up, we can say this country is headed for civil unrest or a changing of the guard, much the same as when Republicans replaced the Whigs.

How do you have apathy and civil unrest at the same time?

Apathy by those who refuse to get involved and vote coupled with a minority of extremists that are willing to use violence in order to achieve a political goal. When nothing is being done at the mainstream level and the majority fit into the extreme categories (those who are constipated and don't give a crap) against the extremists who want open rebellion, spiff happens.

They certainly don't realize it now...The inmates are guarding themselves at this point.History keeps repeating itself, but in this case the intervals look like it might take a really long time down the road - maybe after everybody realizes that they are enslaved.
Not necessarily true...I know a lot of Ron & Rand supporters who sat it out once they were eliminated from the race....And looking at the sorry state of the LP these days, I can't blame them.The myth is you really have a choice in the election process...
Third party voting for me is to say no to the major two parties candidate...
Also Libertarian usually go with the GOP ( Ron and Rand Paul ) and Green usually goes with the Democrats ( Look at what Ralph Nader and Jill Stein and those that voted for them ), so you are correct they usually are absorbed...
