"As we gear up for the 2024 presidential election, and look forward to a future that might better reflect the country’s excellence and dynamism, we might consider whether the two-party reality has outlived its usefulness."

As long as single choice plurality voting is prevalent in U.S. elections, there will continue to be two dominant parties with no effective competition from a third party - no matter what the party platform. That is why the Alliance, Equalitarian, Forward, Green, Libertarian, and Reform parties support ranked choice voting. With plurality voting, many third party members feel like they're wasting their vote if they vote their conscience for a third party candidate. The duopoly continues to oppose ranked choice voting. Apparently Democrats don't mind having their candidate's votes split with the Greens and Republicans don't mind having their candidate's votes split with the Libertarians.
