The bipartisan system in the United States is a hypocritical and deceptive political system aimed at covering up the reactionary nature of its unpopular bourgeois dictatorship and policies and justifying the capitalist class's domination over society. Rodong Sinmun today observes this in a signed article.If only there could be a one-party system as in, let's see . . .
It goes on:
The hypocritical and deceptive nature of the American-style "democracy" under the bipartisan system finds its expression in the fact that the toiling popular masses are excluded from the election campaigns and political activities.
Any citizen of a country should be granted the rights to vote and to be elected in the country without any condition.
The above-said rights related to democracy are not guaranteed in the American-style "democracy" under the bipartisan system.
The U.S. federal and state constitutions do not guarantee the poor suffrage. These constitutions restrict the rights of the ordinary people to vote under the pretexts of their property status, level of their education, duration of their residence, etc. The presidential election in the U.S. is an indirect election through electoral college. The president is elected by this electoral college and its members are chosen by ordinary electors. Almost all the members of the electoral college represent the exploiting class.
It is mainly due to this bipartisan system that democracy is suppressed and the political life is getting more reactionary as the days go by in the U.S.
The above-said nature is also manifested in the fact that all U.S. policies and line are shaped and executed in contravention of the desire and demands of the toiling people. The two parties--the Republican Party and the Democratic Party, groups of monopoly capitalists and those who speak for them, faithfully serve the bourgeois only.
What the American "democracy" under the above-said system denotes is very simple and mechanical. When the Republican Party insists "it is right" before acting, the Democratic Party says "it is wrong" before moving. This precisely means American -style "democracy." The political scramble between the two parties is nothing but a clash between the wealthy classes over their interests, the fight to gain more economic profits with the help of power.
Any illusion about the above-said "democracy" leads to national ruin. The world progressive countries and people should, therefore, guard against American-style "democracy" and never allow themselves to accept it, concludes the article.
