The U.S. is a first past the post system. All you are suggesting is that whoever gets elected is still not the person most people want, except even less fairly.
Insulting me doesn’t explain why your idea of a half dozen candidates in a first past the post system, meaning that a large majority of people don’t get what they want, is better than what we have now.
