> I think that's nice.

Agreed. I like the idea of political pluralism much more than the idea of a so-called "centrist" party.

We do have other parties in the US, such as the Libertarian and Green parties, but our system makes it very difficult for them. They have to fight like crazy for ballot access, they're locked out of news coverage, they don't receive public funding, and they are reviled as "spoilers" by the two major parties.
