Our constitutional system of government, which has served us well,
has elements in it that tend to exclude minor parties (such as winner
take all elections). Our Congress tries to prevent the defeat of its
incumbents, which has nothing to do with excluding minor parties, and
everything to do with preserving the power of its existing members.


]to continued use heavily government-leashed media (controlled by
]threats of suspending broadcasting licenses) for it's purposes by for
]example not reporting any results for dissenting parties in opinion
]polls or elections, 

If this media is so "government leashed," why does it persist in constantly
attacking the government - especially the Republican party's part
of the government? This is an absurd accusation. There is a strong
support of first amendment rights in the USA.

rumors say that current actions include use of
]secret police to silence candidates from other parties.

The US does not have a secret police. "rumors" is too kind a word for
you to use.

]The regime has also previously used aggressive means to treat

]sitting in jail and one candidate from inside the governing party with

]convention of the branch of the governing party known as the "good
]cop" branch (from a technique known as "good cop - bad cop routine"
]which the governing regime has allegedly adopted from the movie world
]in exchange for functioning as a recycling bin for actors the movie
]world wants to get rid of), or "the Democratic party" in the regime's
]parlance.

Care to get specific? This sounds pretty absurd to me.

But this is specified for in the constitution! The supreme court
was appointed according to the rules. Some of us do believe that
the government acts unconstitutionally in some areas, but that
is what we have courts for... to adjudicate these disputes that
always come up.

]power-usurping - for example by using a little known aspect of the
]justice systrem known as "jury nullification" which can be used to
]judge unconstitutional laws void.  But people working for the
]re-adoption of the Constitution in this way say it is difficult since
]in many places jurors are tested for their knowledge of the
]nullification clause and excluded if they show their knowledge.

This is true in some cases.  Of course, if the regime was as evil as you
attempt to show, they would be arrested as subversives, wouldn't you?

Just out of curiosity, where do you come up with this sort of trash?
And, why do you come up with it?
