In the nation, a candidate wins the presidential elections only if they have more votes than any other participant. Therefore parties strive to be as large as they can, smoothing over disparities between voters and candidates. There is no point ...

Lijphart identifies three characteristics that distinguish essentially presidentialism and parliamentarianism (Lijphart, 2000).
