Coherent programs to voters

Parties should present clear and coherent programs to voters. Voters should choose candidates on the basis of party programs. The winning party should carry out its program once in office. Voters should hold the governing party responsible at the next election for executing its program. How well do you think these principles describe our current political parties?

By these guidelines, are the current two major parties “responsible”? Do you think these are good guidelines for parties to aspire to? https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/monkey-cage/wp/2018/07/24/this-1950-political-science-report-keeps-popping-up-in-the-news-heres-the-story-behind-it/ https://www.vox.com/polyarchy/2018/3/26/17163960/america-two-party-system-constitutional-democracy
