Yes, but that doesn't mean they can't get away from it. Sanders managed to run very strong presidential primary campaigns, twice, and almost all of his funding was from individual donors giving his campaign under $100 each.
Dems could do this, if leadership had the will.
3rd parties can't, or they can't yet, because none of them have put in sufficient work at a grassroots level yet to consistently win places on state legislatures, much less federally.
