Changing to a parliamentary system would require a huge constitutional amendment. Remember that the innocuous Equal Rights Amendment has still not passed: the chance of a sweeping reform on that scale is probably very similar to the chance of having a successful revolt.
So, in short, if you really want a parliamentary democracy, you'll need to move to one.
One or two more parties in Congress would make the current obstruction tactics much more difficult.
