Changing the way we vote is difficult in that by splitting the vote between candidates means that the other party has a better chance of winning...
if an "independant candidate" with views that appeared conservative, but moderated in tone such as "I own guns, believe in life at conception, favor small government with local control, oppose long-term welfare,"
and a conservative candidate, that strongly believes in Gun ownership, life at Conception and opposses abortion, favors small Goverment and tax cuts, and would abolish welfare,
would they not split the conservative vote.....leaving the liberal vote united on one candidate????
