    didn’t give us everything we wanted fast enough

    it’s more like didn’t give us anything we needed.

    Also 0.8 worth of good presidents out of 46 is worse odds than a broken clock but, atleast with a broken clock, you’re guaranteed 2 good intervals on a regular bases.

    and that’s why they’re not the right answers; it’s a systems that intentionally setup to give you shittiest choices and forces you to abide by them to make sure that you never get a good president; merely a very slightly less worse one while simultaneously teaching you to despise anyone who tries to point this out.

    meanwhile other places have much better voting systems and our system has so americanized you that you don’t believe that those systems can also work here or, atleast, you’ve been conditioned to believe that we MUST select either a republican or a democrat.
