I think that there are advantages and disadvantages in regard to having either a governmental system dominated by two political parties or a governmental system dominated by more than two political parties. One advantage in regard to having a governmental system dominated by two political parties is that it is easier for voters to make decisions when they vote. The more choices you have the harder it is to make a decision. One disadvantage to having a governmental system dominated by two political parties is that voters only get two perspectives about an issue. I think having more than two political parties would offer ideas and perspectives that have not been considered. Just having two political parties that dominate the governmental system limits options for the voters.
I would choose having more than two political parties in the United States government over just having two political parties. I like and support the idea of having many options when I vote and think about political issues. Many Americans think that both the democratic party and republican party do things that are not good for the United States. Republicans claim to be the party that is financially responsible even though they really are not. Democrats claim to be good at certain things as well even though they really are not also. I think that this assessment of the two parties that many Americans have is the right assessment. Their assessment is the reason why America needs more than two political parties.
I realize that there is no perfect political party. I consider myself to be not a democratic and not a republican. It is important to take the best ideas from each party. Being attached to a political party can cause problems. It causes government officials to do what is in the best interest of the party instead of doing what is in the best interest of the United States.
