One of the problems with a number of "democractic" methods, is that they
vote on things in "either-or" methods. (Do you vote for or against policy
"A".) Any such voting system, to avoid a "tyranny of majority" (generally
caused when people seperate out into parties, and people vote for their
party on all issues so that other issues that are important to them get the
support they want.
Individuals are rarely as black & white as parties are. Thus, each vote
needs more than a "yes or no". Voting should be done, imho, to address
solutions to issues. (So, instead of vote on "The Health Reform Bill", vote
on, "The problems with Healthcare", which would then have various bills
proposed, and people would then vote in order of preference, while always
having an option of "none of the above", or "none of the above, please
revise marked in order of preference" next to any bill. By not only
allowing, but encouraging, shades of grey, you avoid the "tyranny of
majority". Any issue that was a simple numerical issue (like "what
percentage should income taxes be set at"?) Would present a percentage
range, and take the average value people agree on (while still always
providing the option for "none of the above", "find an alternative", etc..)
