Would the US be better off with a multi-party system?

We practically do, they just have to work together before the candidates are chosen, as another poster said.  Democrats and Republicans are far from monolithic, and those who answer poll questions monolithically are just engaging in group-think and tribalism.

I've witnessed it with my own parents, who I love very much and respect and think the world of.  Within just 15 years, their *tones* as Republicans have noticeably changed, all in the name of hating the Democrats.  We've witnessed some red avatars here go from chastising Republicans as heartless a*sholes who don't care about the poor and unfortunate to chastising Republicans for being too poor, rural and unfortunate, LOL.  All in a span of a decade or less.  There will always be a segment of each party that just thinks "I'm a ____, so I hate what those evil ____s believe!!", but I think there is still a lot more ideological diversity in the parties than polls show or definitely our politicians show.

I would at least have a lot of fun watching which types of parties emerge in such a system in this country.  I think it'd be cool if the parties that came to exist in such a system weren't the stereotypical factions we hear about within our two parties now, as that'd be boring.
