Yes and no.

The Founding Fathers created the State in a manner that supported their interests, hence why it structurally supported wealthy Capitalists and slave owning white men most of all.

Over time, this has been amended, Black Americans were emancipated and every citizen can vote now, including women, but only via constant struggle against the system.

That doesn't relate to my comment or the original post. It's like you're trying to shoehorn in your own ideas about class war into the conversation.

In return, I would like to add add that George Washington did not have wooden teeth. In fact, he had weird Frankenstein dentures made up of a bunch of other different teeth. This supports my pro dental care ideas.

It absolutely relates. The two party system is a symptom of designing a system to bend but never break, and retain control of the people who made the system.

Believe it or not, human history is the history of class struggle. It isn't at all unrelated to how wealthy Capitalists designed a state to retain their power.

No, human history is the history of struggle against tooth decay. If you disagree, you are a tool of the anti-dentites.

No, I am the one who knocks.

Your analogy didnt really work the first time around, this is even worse

Considering many of the teeth in the "Frankenstein dentures" came from slaves or dead bodies of slaves....
