The problem is we do a single vote winner takes all system with absurd hurdles to even make it onto the ballot. Because of this it’s pretty much guaranteed the most moderate choice with the weakest stances will win. Of course there is also the problem with the disproportionate Electoral College votes in each state allowing people to lose the popular vote and still become president, as well as the disproportionate number of representatives from each state and district sent to Congress.

I’d be all for a per-capita representation in congress and a ranked choice vote for President.
