Yep. Gotta preserve the status quo, which is a permanently ruling duopoly, split into 2 leagues. Just like the big leagues with 2 competing sets of baseball teams. The team that finally wins the playoffs at the end of the 4 year season (Will it be...The powerful Hillarys? The surprising Obamas? The stalwart Julianis? Or...?) gets the bonuses and the glory. The league stays profitable and in power regardless of who wins. The public foots the bill, and hopefully is entertained in the process. The league's owners cash in and party at places like Bohemian Grove.
