no American politics is a silly facade of "two-parties" which makes people swing back and forth back and forth, because when they are obviously fed up with one guy, they naturally are persuaded to go for the "other" guy even if both guys simply do the same thing for 150 years.. In all honesty, we are still perpetuating the blunders and mistakes of the Lincoln era, just Obama realistically is keeping up the Bush administration economic, domestic and military policies into their
9th year..
the US needs to either go TRUE multiparty, or accept its limitations and go democratic UNIPARTY to get out of the swinging pendulum effect, or go Parliamentarian and solve these problems of competition by proportionate representation.
