Most things wrong with America have one cause

What America needs to do is break away from this entrenched two party system . We need a credible 3rd party. Doing so would put a choke on corporate political manipulation.

what the us of a needs is to be like most countries in the world like canada uk france italy germany mexico ireland brasil argentina and many others

have a multiple political parties system where there are more than just 2 political parties that can run in elections
 
where is there a systemic problem lol

the us of a

or anywhere in the world on earth 1
The systemic problem is the single-member district system of representation. It works like this: Suppose in the next election in your state, candidates of the Green Party (or substitute Libertarian, Socialist, whatever is your favorite) get 15% of the votes cast statewide. How many Greens get seats in the state legislature? NONE, because there are not enough Green voters in ANY ONE DISTRICT to make up a majority or plurality of votes cast in that district.

This tends naturally to freeze out third parties and produce a two-party system.

Under a proportional representation system, if the Greens get 15% of the VOTES, they get 15% of the SEATS.
