If people would just vote for the best person for the job instead of the lesser of two evils...
I strongly favor a 7 party system.
Something like this. Socialist Party->Green/Progressive Party>Democratic Party>Reform/Centrist/Moderate Party>Republican Party>Constitution/Tea Party>Libertarian Party.
Socialists are literally far left reds who want European style Nordic Socialism, working class, union, minimum wage, high taxes on wealthy, public ownership of industry etc. (ie Kshama Sawant)
Greens/Progressives are non socialist progs, think Nader, Keith Ellison, Bernie Sanders, Barbara Lee, Alan Grayson, Sherrod Brown, Shenna Bellows, Bill De Blasio, Brian Schweitzer, Tom Harkin etc.
Dems are traditional center/left types, think Amy Klobuchar, Martha Coakley, Jeff Merkley, Andrew Cuomo, John Hickenlooper, Martin O'Malley, Gavin Newson, Hillary Clinton etc.
Reform/Centrist types are mix of blue dogs and moderate Republicans. Charlie Crist ,Susan Collins, Mike Ross, John Barrow, Michelle Nunn, John Huntsman, Neel Kashkari, Mitt Romney, Heath Shuler, Kyrsten Sinema, Richard Tisei, Carl De Maio etc.
Republicans are right but not super socially right, think John Boehner, John Cornyn, Bush family, John Bolton, Bob Corker, Bobby Jindal, Rick Scott, Scott Walker, Nikki Haley etc.
Constitution/Tea Party is the social and far right. Sarah Palin, Rick Santorum, Michelle Bachmann, Chris McDaniel, Ted Cruz, Steve King etc.
Libertarians are the Paul types, and the Gary Johnson types
