What are some positive effects of the split in american politics in the early 1800s?

The answer is, The development of political parties in the early 1800s was not split in American politics it is what makes democracy work for the U. S. (although disruptive at times). The two party system we have allows varied thoughts to be brought to the voters attention and in that way they make decisions as to which direction the public wants the politicians to go. It is what allows the U. S to make decisions at the ballot box and not with a bullet.
