Your argument means we never escape lesser evilism. To get out of the trap we have to build a new alternative, and that requires, as a bare minimum, getting the Green party over 5% in as many states as possible, which means they no long have to go through the wasteful effort of getting on the ballot each election cycle in most states, and which qualifies them right away for getting federal matching funds in the next election -- a big deal. We need also to try to get the Greens up to 15% in the key polls, which would put Stein in the fall televised debates with the two "major party" candidates. That would be a game changer!

If we stay with your approach, we never get there.
