Answer to Question 1

FALSE

Answer to Question 2

An ideal response will:
1, Discuss the institutional structure of the U.S. plurality system, which effectively limits the ability of third parties to partake in government.
2, Contrast the American winner-take-all model with the majority of European countries, which use a proportional representation system and coalition governments including minority parties.
3, State that proportional representation gives greater voice to minorities at the cost of extreme third parties having greater influence.
