Americans do not choose to have only two parties. Our PACs, media, and billionaires choose that for us. #CitizenUnited cements the fact that our choices are binary.
A few places (such as in Alaska) are allowing #RankedChoiceVoting as a path for other parties, but in the end (even there)... We are still dominated by the two parties.
Long, expensive campaigns for Congress and the WH mean that big money needs to back candidates. Big money means one of the two major parties MUST back you financially.
#ThirdParty candidates have almost always been spoilers for the Democrats' success and helped Republicans.
Tell us how to get corruption, big money and billionaires out of our system, and how to convince our corrupt politicians to get rid of the same #CitizensUnited that profitd them... THEN maybe we could have more parties.
Until such time as we can magically make that happen, we will have only two choices.
