Well, I guessed it would be too difficult, sad that you could not prove my
statistics wrong.

however, some of the top-leaders of USA often use the terms consensus and
consensus-mechanism, but not when statistically the US masses would listen.

Been the same since the early 1900s, so maybe there is hope.

Maybe one can hope for the transatlantic love-duet to open those eyes and minds??

As the ancient vikings used to say

...LIP-SYNKED AND FORCED TO SAY THINGS THEY WOULD NEVER SAY, THINGS THAT EVERYBODY KNOWS ARE MORE TRUE THAN THE THINGS THEY USUALLY SAY.

While the irish, scots and the welsh nodded and steered far away from any two-party system.

That ReCall stuff, how much could be recalled considering how outdated it is??

two times in US history should be no real recall obstacle, no??

Or is the answer in redistricting without a quorum, a couple of years late????

or just dangling chads??

or all the old two-party mechanisms??

ANyway, may that statue torch shine some light, finally, slowly but into
the darkest nights, then as well as now and at least in the futures.

Btw, why did the principle of proportional representation enter the USA in
the 1960-70s?? (although according to the major principles of the know-nothing party)
