I think, if anything, the absence of guns & gun rights is the problem, not that there are too many of them.  Don't believe me? Just take a look at D.C.

Assuming you two are the same, the two party system is not the cause. Since the two parties have so much power, the US is turning into a mass-oligarchy, with different political groups trying to gain favour with the 2 parties and the parties judging which combination of political groups they should support to get more popular support. This usually occurs when democracies get very large with diverse opinions and small government does not matter. The solution is to have a central government elections and state elections, in which the states have individual parties per state which MAY only be connected to central government parties in name only. The result is national unity without a coalition of local governments fragmenting central government.
