200 years ago, we obviously needed a representative government, because people couldn't readily communicate with each other over even a 100 mile distance.

But now, with the internet, we can all communicate with each other, instantly. We don't need someone to represent us, we can each represent ourselves! Either by text message, phone in, or internet vote, like American Idol on steroids, we'll just each directly cast our own votes on the issues. Cut out the middleman.

But remember Sanjaya? Think about THAT!
