You are telling me something that I already know only that I choose not to believe in the system or "principle" or whatever.You are also speaking of nuances when you just said that the problem lies with the people who vote which I find it to be simplistic
It's entirely irrelevant if you 'believe' in a system or choose not to. That's what the system is. That's the system that governs your country.
Please quote me rather than make silly statements. If you read the statementsI wrote
The problem doesn't necessarily need to be with the system either as it's the people who vote.
The dominance of the two-party system is the result of who people vote for and not just the 'system'. People have access to greater source of information and 'behind-the-scenes' knowledge than ever before and more than likely the number of people voting is based on the rational-choice model (what's in my overall interests both short and long-term) that determines their behaviour come election time. The two parties have a proven track record in almost all fields of governance, expertise, financing, international reputation, powerful lobby groups, pressure and advocacy groups and offer a diverse range of candidates come the primaries as well as diversity of opinion across a range of hot topic' issues. It's mo wonder that people CHOOSE to vote for one of the two big parties. There are no gun point election booths.
It's as if you expect that if people create a political party then automatically that party should be part of the governing body. No. That's not how elections work or how any democracy works. The failure of any other party to make a big impression in Washington is because they fail to convince large populations of the states to vote for them. This coupled with the electoral college 'winner takes all' system is the reason why we have a two-party dominant system and not because of whatever it is you're suggesting.
Democracy is not the tyranny of what you want it to be but the will of the people tempered by an elected executive and legislative body.
Britain has evolved from a two-party dominant system to a multi-party system because of a collapse in inflexible ideology driven politics, the dilution of the class-system via social mobility amongst other things and greater transparency on political issues/manifestos etc. Democracy has never been better. Stop moaning.
