In our current system, I would much prefer to have a proportional-representation voting system, than a winner-take all. Democrat or Republican, Communist or Fascist, and everything in between, I think we can all agree that a two-party system representing the will and needs of over 300 million people isn't exactly suitable, yes? I'd like to see our Senate filibuster eliminated as well as change Senator representation for states based on population changed (States like CA and NY get 2 people to represent 30 million people, which is just awful when states like N. Dakota get 2 for 700,000....not exactly fair or democratic in my opinion).
