Re: Voting mechanisms.

Now for a fun one: bring back the original approach that winner got Presidency, and 1st runner up got Veep? I rather like. Might lead to gridlock, would certainly lead to more discussion and discourse during each term instead of these wild swings of the pendulum we currently have that just enforce the polarization of the political rhetoric.

Someone, at some point, did some study for which I have absolutely no citation that says that gridlock is best for the economy. The less congress does, the better.
