It’s time to stop supporting the two morally and intellectually bankrupt parties that continue to fail our citizens. It’s time for those of us in the rational center to reclaim our country, our state and our local governments and bring common sense back to our civic life. Together, a growing movement of people are building up our communities working for solutions that benefit all of us, not ideology driven by divisiveness and partisan pandering.

RECOMMENDED READS

American democracy is at an impasse. After years of zero-sum partisan trench warfare, our political institutions are deteriorating. Our norms are collapsing. Democrats and Republicans no longer merely argue; they cut off contact with each other. In short, the two-party system is breaking our democracy, and driving us all crazy.

Deftly weaving together history, democratic theory, and cutting edge political science research, Drutman tells the story of how American politics became so toxic, why the country is trapped in a doom loop of escalating two-party warfare, and why it is destroying the shared sense of fairness and legitimacy on which democracy depends.
