I think you missed “The Party”, there’s a single party so there’s no choice. Although the two parties situation in the USA is also bad for democracy.
No, I didn’t. In the USA the only candidates on the ballot are approved by the party. Look into Bernie Sanders’ 2016 campaign to find out how it works.
Candidates, as you said, not candidate. Again, that means there’s a choice. Having a single candidate per party is normal, most democracies work like this. But there are multiple parties, so multiple candidates can be voted for by the people at the general election. I am confused why you don’t consider this difference with a single party system. Please explain.
