either apoltical person or political junkie Connor. Here is my idea of the solution, not detail plan.
1. Major political parties are in power alternately for 6 years. Major party is defined as the party who has membership over 35% of total population eligible to register, 18 years or older. (It de facto can not have more than 2 major political parties in this country mathematically). So, no more costly and ugly elections. No more campaign nonsenses. No more clown shows. No more cynical plays and manipulation intended to get elected.
2. Originally one day of national voting on November is transformed into a year-long party registration process. This party registration takes once every 6 year and the result will valid for 6 years. No more general election, only registration.
3. If a party membership registration passed 45% of total eligible population benchmark, this party is a super majority party, and will be rewarded to have 8 years in power instead normally 6 years. That is, the party earns 2 more years in power. Yes, it is possible we have 2 super parties each have 45% or more members and each in turn will be in power for 8 years.
4. How will the party to be in the power elect the president? It depends on party's own rule. You can still have election within the party similar to the primary election that elects presidential nominee.
5. Stay tuned. To be continued after the game.
