RE: "When the population is very evenly divided, it is a winner takes all issue. Somehow the political power structure should reflect the relative votes"

Bingo.

In some foreign countries, they have a better system where the Vice President has to come from a different Party than President while their version of Congress is required to have political diversity. Each and every minority group gets represented. The USA system really needs to be rewritten.

It also means that ethnic, religious and gender diversity occurs. For example, you wouldn't have a situation where a bunch of old white men control the rights of young women.
