What if instead of a two party system, America has a three party system and always has had it. Let's see what this could mean.
1. The Federalist Party doesn't die out for some odd reason and exists with the Democratic and Whig party until the Whig party disbands and the Repulican party takes over.
2. The Green Party or some other party takes over now as an official third party like it has in the state of Illinois.
3. After the war of 1812, the Constitutional Party exists along side the others.
How would that change things and affect things to come?
