The claim that only 9% of the population voted for Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton has become popular. The number is misleading, but a reality is still made clear: an investigation of the numbers show that mathematically there is room for more than two major parties in the American political landscape. Casually dismissing a presidential candidate as completely unfit for office has become a hallmark of the 2016 campaign. Is this politics as usual? Or is there a danger to playing the “unfit” card.
