Any Polisci Majors Out There?

If you study polisci, you are probably aware of the theories in international relations regarding balance of powers where you never end up with one superpower for too long, a group of smaller powers always forms a coalition to balance the power. Someone should write a paper on the application of this theory to internal politics. Particularly the American 2-party political system. I'm sure some research would reveal striking similarities between voting trends and the interactions of super powers. I don't have time for this, but I'm sure it would make a good doctoral thesis for someone with the appropriate resources. Would that be you?
