I think a ranked voting system would be better at promoting costructive compromose and avoiding the current trend toward extremism. Our current 2 party system coupled with the trend in social media toward programming input tailored to what each person "LIKES" has driven us toward more and more radical extremes. People no longer see relevant counter arguements, only derogatory items intended to denigtate any viewpoint but their own. It has resulted in a system that not only cannot compromise in order to act effectively, we are approaching war with ourselves rather than accomplishing our goals and needs. A ranked voying system would tend to promote more moderate candidates needed to moderate this trend.
