The people have the ability to vote for another party, they just choose not to exercise it. The people of America get what they deserve, they do not exercise they're democracy and beliefs instead they conform to become part of the herd in two parties.

I believe it has to do with preception that the majority is moving without them, and by themselves they have no strength to make a difference. The modern media so easily moves and munipulates the majority by making it simply look like they are being left behind. Its no longer really a democracy, its an odd twist of cultural bending and Government ordering.
I wonder why it is that people take the modern media so seriously. At this point, politics seems more like entertainment than anything else. People get involved pick a candidate, and it gives them a thrill for a few months or more.
