The idea that 2 Major Political Parties can represent 300+ Million people is insane. The people who argue that this is the best system, that this is the only system that can work right now is insane. The go with the flow, establishment is leader, "everything is fine" people are insane.
My firm opinion is that America needs to change its system or else there will be a dictator. I obviously want that spot before anyone else.
I believe the Democratic Party, ideally, must collapse into separate parties. The resulting reorganization will subsequently cause the other party to collapse through the pull of the policy agendas of the children parties. People vote Republican even though they do not want to, so yes it will collapse.
The idea that a party collapse will result in election losses is fundamentally flawed. That a split party must happen in an orderly agreed upon fashion. No, that's not how it works and obviously you have a lack of imagination. The go with the flow types will argue this bullsh*t and its a red herring. You do not need one person to form a party, all you need is a losing party, disgruntled people and a cohesive message.
Democratic party has been on a loss trend for House and State seats for more than 50 years now. It is ripe for disruption or else.

This article is more imaginative and speculative and gives an idea for how a final state of party splits would happen under a slightly reformed electoral system. Better representation of policies and distribution of people is effectively what anyone could gather from this article.
The point is this, the two party system is unsustainable.
