That's why, if we want to avoid widening the political divide, we should stop giving power to political parties.

In fact, I'd say there shouldn't be any candidates. We've seen politicians come in and demonstrate their reliability, mostly with negative consequences.
I agree with your first point. I generally vote for independents or candidates from smaller parties when I have the opportunity, simply to try to encourage more diversity in the options we're faced with.

I'm not sure what you mean by your second point. Do you mean that political parties shouldn't select one candidate to run?
