I absolutely believe the 2 party system has failed us. So have the lack of term limits and the trend of governing via Executive orders instead of legislation.

Yes. The two party system has failed us. We need a multi-party PR system.

Yes. We need a parliamentary system Where the extremes usually have less impact.

Our system has always been dependent upon a sense of duty to country above self.  We are so partisan today that we need a multi party system that is structured to allow more voices and force more compromise and coalition building.  Part of that reform has to be campaign finance reform.  PACs are torching the political landscape.

Nothing will change until we remove money from politics and governing.  Our government is corrupt and therefore, illegitimate. 

The answers are found in real principles, not partisan ideology.
