<<Perhaps we should have two "chambers" - one which is equal votes per
constituency (senate model) like the Names Council) and one which is
votes are proportional to membership/support (house model).  One could
argue the GA is the equivalent of the House but this then means that
in this analogy you have a House with no powers at all and a Names
Council with all the powers.>


Next we'll have constituencies using butterfly ballots and applying
inconsistent  "state" regulations to "federal" elections, backed up by an
"electoral college" made up of "experts" to veto the popular vote, all
applied on a global scale....scary thought.

Imo, the founding fathers are not the best place to look for a role model
for Internet Democracy, especially at this particular moment in time....:-)
