A Smattering of Ideas

  1. Anyone who holds or has declared an intent to hold an elected or appointed position of authority, public or private, has no right to privacy. Everything except their sex lives should be open to public scrutiny from the day that they announce their candidacy or eligibility. School records, military service, tax records since they turned 18, real-time investment information, everything. This would apply to mayors, congresspeople, and presidents, but also CEO’s (elected by the shareholders), judges (elected and appointed), district attorneys, generals and admirals, and all SES employees of the government.
  2. Congressional seats should be apportioned by the number of votes cast, not the number of eligible voters. Each election would have a total of 435 seats available for all the states, but how many each state gets would depend on the number of votes actually cast compared to the nationwide total. States with higher participation would have more representation.
  3. Each state gets three senators, and they are elected simultaneously on one ballot. One ballot, three winners — whichever three candidates get the most votes. This will mean that, until something drastic changes in American politics, that most states will have one democrat, one republican, and one third party.
  4. The president is the winner of the popular vote
