In order for US as a whole to move forward, we Need Enlightened & Capable leaders.
We need men & women who care for their neighbor as much as they care for their Self.
We don't need Deligators and pencil pushers, we need spiritual and moral leaders. Humans that make the right decision, for the sake of Truth & Justice.
We need Sage Leaders. People that would sooner forfeit their own life than compromise on their values of Morality.
My thought is this..
WE can develop innovative and open source solutions to identify the ideal leaders in our communities and states.
In order to identify the ideal candidates we can use data science methods & open source algorithms on the blockchain.
Once we identify the top 2 or 3 most qualified Men & Women, We can use our constantly evolving Liquid Democracy app to vote for "The Peoples candidate"
When the standard election comes around; we can all vote our candidate in. If our numbers are sufficient to secure the Win, but we lose , we will know that Voter Manipulation exists.
