Speaking of anal, you could be used for the definition. You seem capable of conceiving of only one single source of the world's problems- -two party systems. How about one-party systems? Remember your wonderful neighbor, the USSR? How about China? Do theocracies get a mention in here? Iran? Afghanistan under the Taliban? Saudi Arabia? How about flat-out dictatorships? Iraq? Liberia? Uganda under Idi Amin? Does Communism itself rate anywhere in your scheme of Hell? Remember Pol Pot? Mao? And on the subject of two-party systems, let me point out again that the United States of America has been a working democracy much longer than your country has existed.
