What Joemama has proposed is a complete revamping of our political system. That means throw out the Constitution. (He who must not be named is going into cardiac arrest.) It seems to me the suggested system sounds awfully similar to what we see in a lot of other countries and none of them seem particularly efficient at getting things done. Too many back room (or open) deals to form coalitions in order to be an effective voting bloc. I think I would rather work within our existing constitutional framework and try to create more interest in the voting (or should be) public to support cleaner candidates. You think I'm a dreamer? Maybe, but I don't want to chuck the constitution.
