Question

Which statement about minor parties in the United States is false?

1. They serve as a place where minority opinions can be exercised freely.
2. They grow up around an issue but never gain power in the government.
3. Their issues are eventually taken up by one of the two major parties.
4. They include the Democratic Party and the Republican Party.

Answer 1

I believe the answer is: 4. They include the Democratic Party and the Republican Party.

Both the democratic party and the Republican has been the only two majority parties ever since they're established. They control the majority seats in the congress which mean that these parties also the one that had the strongest influence in the type of legislations that the government would pass.
