The thing that I think makes American politics so...amusing is, the 2 party choice promotes confrontation instead of collaboration.
Our society (western civilization) has actively created a world in which living conditions are so busy that people simply don't have enough leisure time. In the family unit, its not just normal now, but essential for both partners to work. The politicians and policies are easily blamed for this situation by the general public. We all know the cascading effect this has on a society, as it's been debated to death. However one of these effects is that the public comes to respond better to forces of immediate gratification. Simple is best.
It is simpler to confront a single opponent than it is to collaborate with it.
So says Captain Obvious...
