Maybe if Americans would get our heads out if our asses and realize that our current President is a fucking thorn in our side we'd be able to get someone decent in office. But that won't happen until the Republican candidates stop fighting with each other and just choose someone to back. This is just getting re-damn-diculous!
While I can see the merit of Direct Democracy, I also can see that if it ever came to fruition in America it open a whole new Pandora's Box.
