Extract

Political system of USA is very interesting, maybe because it differs from the political system of many European countries. Most officials in America are elected from single-member districts and win office by beating out their opponents in a system for determining winners called "first-past-the-post" — the one who gets the most votes wins, and there is no proportional accounting. Only one party in power, the other out.
There are two major political parties in the United States:
• The Democratic Party was founded by Thomas Jefferson in 1782.
For more than 200 years, the Democratic Party has represented the interests of working families, fighting for equal opportunities and justice for all Americans.
Presidents who were democrats: Madison, Jefferson, Wilson, Roosevelt, Kennedy, Clinton.
