Doesn't the USA technically have 6 parties?

Sure, and a window on the fifth floor is technically an exit. But that doesn't make it a viable option.

I think a better analogy would be, "a building has many exits available, but only 2 emergency exits. During an emergency, you 'must' use the emergency exits... But do you really?"

If the USA population decided to ignore the democrats or republicans, as a whole, and focus their votes on one of the remaining four parties, then you lot would see a different party being elected. Easier said than done. I know. And I'm not blaming any of the USA voting population for this dichotomy.
