politics

RFK Jr's campaign showed that it's impossible to have a 3rd party candidate in the US, it's just too hard. The guy had the name, the signatures and the political opportunity... yet he had to stop.

IMHO the next best realistic chance to fix politics is to change the voting method used in primaries.

As a society, we're so used to choosing 1 candidate among many that we forgot (i) that other methods exist and (ii) how we vote massively impacts the political life. 

This TED talk from Andrew Yang is a great introduction to this rabbit hole 👇

There is a great video by Veritasium that illustrates problems with the voting method and what other alternatives are there. It seems like there is so much room for improvement in first-past-the-post voting systems.
