dominant, the Democratic Party and the Republican

has been elected to the office of president. In
fact, the only time a third party received more
votes than the Republican or Democratic parties
was in the election of 1912. Why has there only
been two parties that have dominated our
government for nearly a century and a half?

electing the president in the 21 st century? The

John Adams, who became the second president of the
United States, hasten accused by some historians
of being the closest thing America everhard to a
dictator or monarch (Onuf, 1993). Such strong
accusations should be examined in the context of
the era in which Mr. Adams lived and served. A

public? s desire to simplify all competitions to
one man against the other. This was not always the
case. In the early part of the 1800? s, the
