Star Trek vs Star Wars

Basically we are still dealing with a two party system. A few further to the left of right, but still two parties. Except for the little guy with the ears. What we need to realize is that while many stand for what a party believes in, the beliefs of the party may have changes (and many times at that). In order to AVOID EXCESSIVENESS OF POLITICS (Actually already to late)
