So right, you don’t seem to have any other approach, other than my option 3 (do nothing). So you are happy with the status quo. Many frum yidden are not, and think the current situation is a spiritual sakanah.

People like Rav Amsalem show that there are Rabbonim who are sensitive to the concerns of many of the hamon am, and are trying their best to come up with creative solutions that are within the bounds of halacha.

I would be willing to bet that if he creates a new party next election, he may get enough votes to get in. (Although I believe that recently the threshold was changed so one needs 3 seats, not 1 to get in.)
