Americans
Elect is a non-partisan, non-profit organization that attempted to use the internet
as a means of selecting a third-party candidate for the Presidential election. Earlier this week, the organization admitted defeat. “As of this
week, no candidate achieved the national support threshold required to enter
the Americans Elect online convention in June…The primary process for the
Americans Elect nomination has come to an end.” Perhaps that is just as well, since it seems
likely that an Americans Elect candidate would draw more support from Democrats
than from Republicans.
Americans Elect
Has failed to select
Through the internet estate
Their party's candidate,
To
give the moderates a voice
And
provide another choice.
But
the problem with their affair
Is
that the people didn’t care.
