Yes, absolutely, and it is happening in every country, not just America. The major parties are either in collusion, or tools of some shadow power, depending on how you view it. All third parties, or anyone who wants to break the script and make any genuine difference to society, is gunned down by the media, usually using simplistic labels like racist, sexist, homophobe, nut-case, extremist and so on.
It's silly that people become so passionate over the differences between parties that are working towards exactly the same goal, just through different scenery. But then, all of politics has become so polarised, compartmentalised and emotional that there is really no room for reasoned debate anymore, from either side. So it’s not entirely surprising that this continues to happen. All these campaigners argue as though solving the world’s problems is a mere change of government away, yet whilst some things may temporarily improve when a government changes - and whilst there are cosmetic differences in policy - looking at the wider picture the same problems in society keep getting worse and worse regardless of who is in office. Those who campaign for the established political forces are really campaigning for the slow destruction of their own country.
