Good points. Why is this a division though? You said it yourself, they're "all over the map". We don't have people x vs y, we have lots of ideas and lots of resultant personal directions. The real problem is having only two parties to act on those directions, shoehorning anything different into their two main discourses.
- vinceguidry 5y agoThe two-party division in the US isn't as big of a hindrance as is commonly thought. Both major parties are big tent parties that play the role that coalitions do in parliamentary systems. Third parties play the role of feeding ideas into the political system and serving as a barometer for where the winds are shifting.
