Political Parties are in our Human Nature

"The latent causes of faction are thus sown in the nature of man." --James Madison

If, hypothetically, we were to eliminate political parties, by the simple nature of our humanity, we would end up forming parties. Birds of a feather flock together, they organize, and then you have parties.

So, for those of you dreaming of eliminating political parties, I don't see it as possible. However, at the federal level, if all politicians were to only abide by the Constitution, no parties would be necessary.

Just a thought.
