Best idea on the thread. The Founders abhorred political parties, and for the very reason you stated. And they pretty much immediately fell into factions and formed parties. If even they, with the fires of revolution still burning hot, couldn't avoid the formation of parties, what chance do we have?

Realistically? Not much.

Forming into camps of 'us' versus 'them', is an all too human instinct.
