From my outside perspective, he seems like an amazing candidate with actual left-wing policies and ideas, yet I’ve never heard a single American mention his name?

Umm, We obviously can. That’s literally this thread.
It’s not up to national politicians to replace first-past-the-post. That is a state-level political decision. With that in mind it is crazy to expect that all 50 states will replace our first-past-the-post voting system anytime soon.
hahaha, As if you can steal votes. That idea is absurd.
No politician is entitled to your vote. Everyone should vote for the best candidate regardless of their perceived popularity. Unfortunately what people should do is largely irrelevant because as a general rule people don’t do what they should do. What they actually end up doing is the perceived easier action. And that is voting for the least shitty option (in their opinion) in the general election.
I would say the optimal voting strategy is the least shitty option currently, but I would not bash anyone for voting for who they think will be the best candidate for the position.
