Talking about US politics? Other countries are much better democracies.
You can tell which ones they are: they offer a realistic choice of more
than two parties to vote for, and the ones running for election are not
the ones running the election.

Yes, the US.  I enjoyed the Danish series Borgen as it showed the
wheeling-dealing needed to assemble a government. At least in that system
a small party like the Libertarians has some bargaining power if they're
needed to form a government. In the US they get their 3% of the vote and
fade away until the next election cycle. They're about the only party that
can consistently even manage 3%.
