Why is he wasting his time with this windmill tilt? It all would have been much better spent, over all these decades, in building a viable third party, or, given his strong anti-defense spending and pro-civil liberties stance, in building a viable conservative Democrat wing. Instead, he is just going to fade away.

I am not so sure about the "fading away" prediction.
Don't let me think you're perfectly happy with the corrupt and fraudulent monetary system as it's developed since roughly 100 years.
Terms of usury only benefit one side of the park.
It's not whacked out as you state, we've merely drifted so far away from a solid platform (in many regards) that his proposals may seem awkward.
The facts of the current reality (wink @ MTI) are so much more bizarre and whacked, yet perfectly sold to us.
Ofcourse, with a little help of the applicable Terms of Usage Agreements.
We are no longer "Free People", as we like to think of us. Rather the opposite is the case.
