As an American, I can confirm that our government is ****** , and none of our candidates are really good. We are going to go to **** whether a Democrat or a Republican take office, because both are just looking to shape the U.S. how they want it to be, rather than what would make it better. Except maybe Ben Carson. Maybe.

well its an outside veiw of things.
something we americunts dont have.
still accurate.....but trump will change that.

Nah, yeah, your opinion's pretty accurate.

Congratulations, you have a complete grasp of what our government is like. If the Dems are in charge, it's **** . If the Repubs are in charge, it's **** .

Independents/Third parties generally are not popular or voted for, probably because "they ain't a Democrut or a Republicun"

The american government doesn't like change.

I think this video does a good job of explaining why the American Two-Party system makes it nearly impossible for third parties to win.

Is that really how it works in America? In germany you need at least 50% of the people's votes to reign, so it makes it basically impossible for a single party to rule, so they need to form coalitions to govern.
One time that even went to the poit were Schröder thought he could still covern although he didn't get the majority of votes, because he didn't believe Merkel and Liberals would be able to coaliate.

Well in the States, we really only have the two parties. Sure there are other smaller parties, but they're mostly just jokes that don't have any representation in our government anyways. If you're a liberal, you're a democrat. If you're a conservative, you're a republican.

So there's no way coalitions can form in the US? Like if liberals got 18%, Democrats 37% and Republicans 45%, the Liberals and Democrats can't make a coalition and form the rightful 55% vote government?
