The Democrats and Republicans may be at each other throats about almost everything but one thing they agree on it their two party duopoly.

Or go to a must voting system, where you order your candidates 1-5 with the 1st getting five points, the 2nd getting four, 3rd getting three and so on. Get it done in one vote.

I like the idea. And introduce term limits (20 years) to make up for mistakes. Recall is also possible.
