the reoson why we have a lot of political parties is because there are independent parties who don't have a lot of backing up by companies so they can't spend as much money on advertisement like the republicans and democrats can so they lose (so far haven't made it to the end) and the democrats and republicans supported by oil companies and other companies have a lot of money to spend so they are more well known throughout the U.S. and are the 2 biggest political parties so all of the time they have been the last 2 to survive
