Parlamentame ésta

Si el sistema presidencialista es tan malo y el parlamentario tan genial, ¿por qué el paso de uno a otro se lo recomiendan exclusivamente a los países pedorros de LA?

Yo sigo creyendo que los problemas de los países a los que les va como a los latinoamericanos no se solucionan con el paso a un sistema parlamentario:

That's not to suggest that we ought to hold a constitutional convention and replace our presidential system with a parliamentary one. American-style separation of powers has its advantages, after all.

Without it, for example, there's little doubt we'd have had socialized medicine long ago. Yale's Ted Marmor, a leading historian of the U.S. health care system, argues that the main reason we don't is that our Constitution's framers rejected a parliamentary regime in which "electoral victories typically produce policy majorities."
