Sinopsi

The United States has become increasingly polarized, although the concept of a two-party system is not new. This book traces the major parties? utter dominance--of the highest elected positions all the way down to ''nonpartisan'' political offices across the U.S.--from the founding of the Constitution through the 2020 presidential election. Even before the founding of the ''modern'' Republican Party in 1854 and the next 168-year era of Democratic-GOP dominance, the early decades of American nationhood were ruled in a similar manner by the two major parties of the day. This book is a comprehensive, fast-paced analysis of how the two-party system has grown to be such an affront to the ideals of the Founding Fathers and of the numerous Americans today who appear to accept it as a fact of life.
