I believe the America from its Independence was the Golden Age of the United States.
I am wondering. Since there were initially no politcal parties other than Whig/Federalist, and everyone was pro- life, shouldn't we ban political parties so there is not so much quarrelling? Instead of voting for someone who is a Democrat or a Republican, we should vote for people for what they believe in, not for their party.
Would it be better if America was a No- Party State?

What we need to do is crack down (and I mean WAY DOWN) on Super PACs and campaign financing, not to mention those "gifts" company CEOs give politicians.
After that, we should make it easier for third parties to make it onto the ballot, which will encourage more competition other than "Us, them, or that other guy".

How in the world do you crack down on Super PACs when they're constitutionally protected?
