I definitely DO NOT recommend the multi-party system. For example, the last elections in Mexico (2012) for President had four candidates: 2 REALLY bad ones, a fair one and an awesome one. The awesome one turned out being an improbable candidate that ended up with like 4% of the total vote IIRC, or maybe less (why? Because people rather trust the evil they're used to with the big, long-time parties than giving a potentially good one a chance); the lesser of two evils won with at least 33% of the vote, leaving two thirds of the country unsatisfied (in short, he didn't win).

And in a 2 party system it would've come down to the 2 evils without the rest even having a shot
What's your point
