Question: If everyone believes that both of the choices were bad...why not choose someone else?

**Warning: The Somewhat Rare Serious Post About Politics**

I mean it's pretty easy to see neither Trump or Hillary were the best choices, but everyone seemed to forget that they weren't the only choices.

It's like going to Walmart (Keeping the American theme going here) looking at the first shelf by the door then thinking "Well I must buy something from here or nothing at all"

There are very valid reasons why neither of them should even be let into Washington DC, let alone The White House...but there were quite a few other candidates that didn't have such luggage.

People are just highly unlikely to vote for the person or party they like most until they become electable. It is why a lot of people don't vote lib dem in the UK and it is why in Scotland a lot of people started voting SNP even if they may have supported their views long before. Once they showed they could win an election they got these votes. Give an independent in the US the money of the Republican and Democrat candidates then they might stand a chance.
