First thing to do is in those states where the voting system is no longer valid the Republican party needs to be dissolved, and a new freedom party put in place.

Just as our founding fathers divided the government in an attempt to keep any one branch from obtaining too much power. So must our political party system become. A two party system lacks enough diversity to accomplish this and accommodates collusion.

Our system of government makes a two party system inevitable.

The Electoral College makes a two party system a necessity because a wide coalition of disparate interest must make an alliance in order to capture the Great Prize that is the Office of the President.

In a parliamentary system our two parties would be many parties: the Greens, Labor, Libertarians, Socialist, Democratic Socialist and so on.

After the elections they would form up an alliance to form a government and select a Executive (Prime Minister).

Because of the Electoral College that alliance is formed prior to the election so that they can hope to elect or select a presidential candidate in the primary who can be elected during the general election .

One thing that the Democrats don’t seem to realize is that should they abolish the Electoral College to achieve their dream of a truly democratic system of Majority Rules, it would very likely be the death of their party.

The end of the Electoral College would be the end of the two major parties. Without the Electoral College we could very likely end up with Presidential Runoff races to get to a candidate that could achieve a majority of votes.
