This is a horrible idea. There’s no guarantee that either side will vote as discussed. Leaving it open to rampant corruption as a voter engages in false discussion, then votes for one of the primary candidates.
Let those 3rd party candidates speak to the American people and present a case that nets them the votes needed.
You didn't read the webpage, ah? While the site can pair folks up as an absolute last resort, this was designed for people to make the pact with a family member or friend. But if a person has no one whose word they can trust, the site is an option, yet the pact wasn't exactly intended for them. But for everyone else, it's a valid and amazing idea providing a breath of fresh air.
Third parties struggle to get on most ballots, as we've seen time and time again this year. Without being on enough ballots, they aren't given time on the debate stage. Meaning they struggle to reach enough voters through alternative outlets to have any chance of making changes in this dire bipartisan landscape.
The path to a viable third party presidential candidate has to pass through the down ballot races. If you want (for example) a future green party or libertarian president, you need a bunch of governors, senators, and representatives first.
Third parties struggle to get on presidential ballots because they are ineffectual on a national scale. They’re ineffective on a national scale because they barely exist in between presidential elections.
Expecting to change the political landscape from the top down is misguided and unrealistic.
