I think the country would be better served by a parliamentary system where the party that wins the election can fulfill its mandate without having to negotiate and cut deals with the other party, fuck checks and balances, a benign dictatorship works better - things are so bad between the Republicans and Democrats that what's best for the country sadly takes a backseat to political one upmandship.
Spare me the bs that John McCain or George Bush had he had a third term would have done anything materially different than Obama. Bush was already throwing huge money at the economic crisis before he left office and would have continued to. The Republican party isn't even conservative and hasn't been in decades.
Nobody wants to pay the real price to fix things - the political costs nor the financial sacrifices. Nobody wants to say 'NO' to those who put them in power and can keep them in power.
