I come from a country that has PR, proportional representation, you can vote for everyone. You can show that you are both interested in a persons politics and an issue separately. As we have seen, the green party everyone wants to vote for but what do they know about education? or Finance for example. HOWEVER, it takes weeks to count the votes and could only work in a small country. But if we got 'big blue' on it in America. Imagine being able to vote for all 30 people, in order of preference, on your ballot. Then there are arrangements made between parties and we have had a coalition government for decades. Despite sounding complex it kinda perfect. Ireland though is far from perfect, so what went wrong. Over and over agin we get to the worlds biggest problem. Corruption. How can we solve that? HOW, you out there, how can we do it, literally for heavens sake??????
