crabofix: How can 2 political parties represent the will of a country that has population of 250 million?
This is a question that really puzzles me.
We don't really have 2 distinct political parties. Their position is the same on all essential issues. The major ones are government control of education, government control of economy, social engineering, welfare state, etc.
We do have a lot of political parties. Few people care about them bacause the education successfully inoculated the majority of population against contracting any ideas.
Also american people are raised/educated as total wimps. They are not taught to take risks. No more "liberty or death". No more "better lose in a fight than submit without a fight", no more "die standing them live on your knees".
Even in matters that do not concern life or death or even physical danger.
Now it's: "I like this guy but he has little chance to win an election, so my vote is going to be vasted, oh horror..." Back to the republicrats it goes.
