dc_dux: No need. A Condorcet voting system ensures that a candidate always receives a majority (Condorcet voting is essentially an enhanced version of Instant Runoff Voting). And without moving away from plurality voting, nothing else matters much anyway, because plurality voting will always lead to two dominant candidates.

Oh, but a constitutional amendment would be required to demand that states use a Condorcet method in electing federal candidates. Sadly, the mathematics of elections and terms like "Condorcet method" aren't exactly sexy enough to hold the interest of the average voter.
