The one thing that America has repeated many times in relation with Iran is that all people in Iran, who prepare them for presidential candidates, should participate in the elections and the people of Iran would vote to anyone they like, otherwise, Iran is not a democracy, but America is a democracy.
We want to analyze America's claim on this issue and see how democracy in America in the field is.
A) Only two parties, ruling in America:
Previous generations of Americans - in different categories - attacked original inhabitants of the continent of America and killed American Indians of this continent and later declared their independence. In any case, America declared its independence in 1776 AD and later they selected George Washington in 1789 as America's first president. Since America's first Presidential election to 2009 (i.e. during the past 220 years) only four of the Presidents of America were not from the Democratic Party or the Republicans. In other words, during the past 220 years - with the exception of four cases - all presidents of America were from the Republican Party or the Democratic Party!Some writers of America know America's first president - George Washington as a Federalist and others say he does not belong to any party. With reference to the list of presidents of America, which are listed below, you can see that from 1853 onwards (i.e. over more than 150 years ago) – since the time of the Fourteenth President of America, Franklin Pierce so far - American president has been from the Democratic party or the Republican party! Before that, only in four cases, the presidents of America were from other parties including Federalists or Whig (the first George Washington was a Federalist. Second one was John Adams, who was also one Federalist). In 1841 AD, William Henry Harrison, the ninth president of America belonged to the Whigs, and a month later he died because of pneumonia and after him, his deputy, John Tyler became president for four years and he ended up the period and he did not have a vice. several years later, in 1849 AD, Zachary Taylor from the Whigs became the twelfth President of America that he also died a year after being president, and his deputy Milord Fillmore became the President of America, and finished this four year period. Like John Tyler, he did not have Deputy. In any case, only in four cases over 220 years of America's presidency, presidents were not Democrat or Republican presidents in America! This is despite the fact that other parties are there in America.

It is worth noting that America's ninth President, William Henry Harrison, died in 1841, and later, Vice of President, John Tyler, became president of America and finished the four-year period. John Tyler did not have a till the end of the period. America's twelfth President, Zachary Taylor, died in 1850, and later his deputy, Fillmore, ended four years, i.e. until 1853 AD He was the president of America who also did not have vice till the end of the period. In any case, from 1853 onwards (more than 150 years) presidents of America were either from Democratic Party or the Republican Party, while there have been also other parties in America.
B) Only two candidates from two ruling parties:
When the government of America announces that the nominees for the presidency of America can campaign of their own, different people - both Republicans and Democrats - candidate for a presidential, but as time progresses, they will remove, and in the end, only two candidates, both Republicans and Democrats remain so the majority of people will vote one of the two. In other words, the people of America can vote just between two people, but the leaders of America saying to countries such as Iran that all those who candidate them for presidential position should participate in the elections and people shall vote for whoever they like. For example, in the ninth election period that there were 1,300 candidates, 1,300 people should participate in the elections and people vote those who like.D) The [formal] Parties in America:
There are also other parties such as Libertarian or the Green Party and others in America, but they have made the situation in a way that people do not hear their voice at all, and do not know them and do not know their ideas and only two people are introduced to Americans and people will vote for one of the two nominees and other people do not have the budget to pay for advertising costs. In any case, either they give up continuing the path (which are ineffective) or a very small number of people vote them which is also useless, and once again, one of the two Republican and Democrat candidates will be elected.C) The arrival of the rebels, agitators and sympathizers of Warring States of America to Electoral College is banned:
America does not even allow a person, who has caused rogue or someone who has caused relaxing enemies of America, to candidate as president of America, but such a person cannot even be entitled as a member of the Electoral College, but in associated with some other countries, America wants them to let every mercenary and corrupted person who America said have the right to dominate as president of the country, and people vote for him as well./J
