Why can't there be a third party to choose from. That is why the U.S system sucks it is only two party. You can either choose the Republicans who are just right-wing, commie haters, (poor Cuba), or the democrats who are no better.

Third party ? Why not a Fourth? Why not a Fifth ?
It won't stop with a third party, and why should it? Therefore the ad infinitum argument is real.
But the two party system will be viable only if it operates as a Big Tent, where it includes many
differing voices under one party but shares some unifying themes. And this is its value :
Forcing different voices to share some unifying themes, even if it's just the re-electing machine
aparatus.
You'd think that each ideology or issue must be pure. And therefore must have its own party to
champion that idea ? This leads to endless splintering, and promotes endless disagreement.
