You're talking about a nation with a blanket two party system, the world's largest economy, and an extreme tendency to involve itself with global affairs.
I have an extreme aversion to voting for Republicans just due to the socially conservative views, but when the democratic candidates vocally support total global surveillance there's just no other choice. Supporting a candidate does not mean you support their every vote and as in all things with life, you just have to make compromises.

- adventured 13y agoHaving numerous parties does not inherently help with anything. There are plenty of examples of countries, eg in Europe, with lots of parties and very dysfunctional political systems. What matters the most is the culture of a country, not whether it has 2, 4, 6, or 27 political parties. A dysfunctional culture with a dozen parties will still produce a dysfunctional political system.
