Why is their only two major parties in the U.S?
Why is like this. Democrats and Republicans are pretty much the only powerful groups in american politics. But why is their no other major party with a different ideology.

Re: Why is their only two major parties in the U.S?
There are actually a bunch of different parties but they are not popular. It is hard to change a 2 party system that was implemented hundred of years ago. The 2 party system is too black and white and people usually side with one or the other because a majority of the country is split between these two.
Too many little parties take up a small portion of the population and they are scattered. If everyone got together and formed an independent party then we can abolish the two party system.

Re: Why is their only two major parties in the U.S?
The Tea Party tried to be a party but immediately were smeared as racists by the Democrats. The Republican party gets smeared as racists on a daily basis by the Democratic party. It's very clear which party wants to be the only party standing. This is why we don't have other parties. They get bullied into non-existence by Liberal lies.

There are
Those who dislike the both major party demo and republican , they could vote for the third party. Only issue is that third party has very little chance of winning because the two major party has been around for many yrs and it has been consistent to some point

All those signs, and none of them say Tea Party. And if you had any brains on you, the topic is the "party", not fringe "supporters" of the party. Tea Party leadership has plenty of African-Americans. Nice try, slick.
Remember all those Bush signs by Liberal kooks like you that wanted him dead or pictured him as Satan? Short-term memory loss and undeniable hypocrisy is a well-known Liberal trait.

Re: Why is their only two major parties in the U.S?
third parties are hamstrung by lack of access to mainstream media and suffocated by partisan hacks who endlessly bicker about irrelevant nonsense
but two parties are generally useful to maintaining a status quo of stubborn compromise, since it frames issues in a black and white fashion, thus turning politics into a pendulum where for five years it's like this and then for five years its like that. which is nice and placid and works out if the economy is functional.
the unfortunate side effect is that it pushes constructive ideas to the fringe which don't necessarily fit with the agenda of either party. it leaves a lot of popular ideology completely unrepresented in the congress. when you pay too much attention to 'the game', that is republicans vs democrats, you tend to ignore arguments that otherwise might sound perfectly rational.
party politics are a team sport to the extent that party supporters are indoctrinated and dogmatic. we do not want politics to be a team sport. and i think we can all agree one way of defusing the heated rivalry between 'left and right' in the united states is to support alternative parties and inject some diversity into a system that's become completely divided and intransigent.

Re: Why is their only two major parties in the U.S?
It's quite obvious a racist is going to side with a party that is conservative but that doesn't mean the party is racist.
Do you honestly think bunch of racists would side with a progressive and liberal party? Think about it.
Just look at all the people calling Trump a racist because he was talking about illegal immigrants. Later to find out he has a bunch of Latinos supporting him.

Who says they're number one with racists? Where do you fabricate these facts from? The void space in your head?
Unless you poll every single American citizen in this country, you have no basis or factual data to say who's more racist than who or which party has the most racists. Let's not pretend like the Democrats don't have a litany of racists all over the country.
How is calling Obama a Kenyan racist?? You're one delusional mofo.

LBJ may have secretly been a racist but he did more for Blacks than any President not named Abraham Lincoln. Dude can call me a n*gger all he wants

Dude managed to get all this shit even though there were a shit ton of racist Dixiecrats in the South
These Southern Democrats got so pissed that they ended up leaving the Democrat Party.. and Nixon and Goldwater turned them into Republicans
That's why people call Republicans racist. The Democrats who opposed Civil Rights decades back are now Republicans
