Summary
This document is a memo outlining a political strategy to run a third-party candidate in the 2020 U.S. presidential election. The author proposes recruiting an 'ideal candidate' with specific traits to challenge both the Democrats and Trump, suggesting that the potential 'chaos' of a three-way race might be preferable to relying on the Democrats alone. The plan involves leveraging new voting technologies and seeking support from Silicon Valley, with a proposed start in the fall of 2019.
