One Party controlling 3 branches of Government should be against the law
After all of the egregious acts committed by the * admin., and the House turning it's head and condoning it, there should be something done to prevent this from occurring again.

Never again should we have the "Perfect Storm"

1. Have to disagree. It should be the choice of the voters.
If you want to make a change, I'd rather it be the electoral college.

2. I 100% completely agree with this
It's disgusting that one party has absolute dominance over our government. These crybabies already have the white house, the media, the house and the senate... why do they need the supreme court?

3. George Washington said a two party system would be the death of America.
The underlying reason being that it would be far, far too easy for one party to control everything at once if there were only two parties running the country. It's amazing what we've unlearned, isn't it?

5. wow, you might have something there, but, what would be the worst case
scenario?

would it possibly mean an melavalent force could secure at least 1/3 power in the US?

would it mean overruling the will of the people?

?
