Idea: A giant tournament bracket in which everybody in the US runs for president. Each contest in the bracket consists of 8 candidates, and the winner among the 8 candidates advances to the next round. Each voter only votes for one 8-person contest per round. There are 10 rounds in total, and in the final round, everyone votes to determine who of the 8 final candidates becomes president. Also: horrible candidates like Mike Bloomberg might spend a million dollars per voter and still lose in the first round; if more democracy is better democracy, this has to be the best approach Joel Fragomeni (Podcast: https://joelradio.net) Sai-D (twitter.com/saidee27) Matti Yaari (facebook.com/myaari) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma)
