This is our two-party system America. Envision a nation where there are only two parties in full control and we can see schisms as the completely natural outcome.

With two parties, the focus by both parties is on the middle of the road (needed for the win). But drive a car closer and closer to the middle of the road, and it becomes more important to establish a separation barrier (for good reasons).

Separation is readily visible in our society, but also in other Anglo nations with a two-party outcome (Canada has more parties, somehow, probably because of the French). The UK with its extreme class society is a historical point in case. But in the US, too, we have many political needs that are simply not addressed.

With our focus on the middle of the road, we fully neglect the outsides of the road. Because of the two-party system, we do not have a system in place that addresses all our needs.

Just Red and Blue in full control means Yellow is banned from the full-color picture. This Yellow is not singular; we can see it fractured in 1,000s of pieces in our society where we neglect and ignore individuals and groups.

Did you know that the winner in our system is always the Losing Party?

Unfortunately, this is true, but needs to be understood.

We need the USA 2.0 upgrade today and it is already possible with the current US Constitution in place. Thank you for your article.
