What we need is not two more Democrats; what we need is a better democracy. The entire world is laughing at us because our political system is not working. Just look at abortion that no politicians ever decided on; the Supreme Court had to step in. Look at gun regulation with not much happening while almost everyone in the nation wants it regulated better.

Our democracy is in deep trouble. The truth is that the mechanism of voters competing with voters for the win is a horrible thing. Why have voters come out of the voting booth as the haves and the have-nots? That is nuts.

Other nations have full representation; all voters are represented. They have abortion policies in place and the lowest numbers of abortion rates. They regulate their guns for hunting and the likes. They have health care for everyone. They have We The People, and we have a banner that says the same.

We don't need twenty parties, definitively not, and at the Federal level we can't change the constitution so that won't occur.

Yet the Bill of Rights demands that we have full representation at the other two levels of government, most clearly so at the local level. Once we break the two-party mold, we will end up with four or five real parties at the Federal level too. We need a better democracy with politicians who value the voters.

Find out how to change our hijacked democracy in the article below. The Founding Fathers never envisioned a two-party system, and they did provide us a path back to good governance.
