	Politics of Dominica - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Nominated by the prime minister in consultation with the leader of the opposition party, the president is elected for a 5-year term by the parliament.
		Dominica has a two-party system, which means that there are two dominant political parties, with extreme difficulty for anybody to achieve electoral success under the banner of any other party.
		Dominica was once a three-party system, but in the past few years the Dominica Labour Party and the greatly diminished Dominica Freedom Party have built a coalition.
