America uses a system similar of that to the Romans, the senate and all that I believe. Your government system seems really boring.

There is a good role for a Parliamentary system. Ministers / advisers should be picked from the legislative, rather than from the corporate world, as is too often done.
The nice thing about the US system though is that there is a clear division between the three different branches of power, unlike what is found in the Parliamentary system.
Lets use Australia for an example: the Prime Minister is the head of the legislative branch, but is also considered the head of the executive branch too (as is the Governor General), entailing a less clear separation of powers, unlike in the US, where the legislative is formed by Congress as the executive being the POTUS.
