Voting

     I support giving the National Academy of Sciences a mandate to explore valid voting systems (by which I mean Condorcet variants, but lesser people mean to include IRV(San Fran) and STV(Australia)) and return their results to Congress in such a form as to be easily intelligible to the great majority of Congresspeople, at which time Congress will easily see that something like Cloneproof, Smith-Set Condorcet is the best, and adopt it for the Nation.

     In the meantime, I support moves like this one in Virginia, thanks to Rep. Scott.  I dislike the kind proposed in Colorado, principally for being out of touch with the spirit of the Virginia Compromise.
