Term limits tend to hand power to the beureaucracy because the newly elected official doesn't know enough policy to be effective. Democracy needs: Democracy needs smaller states and districts. Citizens per representative as a ratio is higher than ever, and we lose representation responsive to local concerns. Media now focuses on national politics. State and local politics suffer because of it. Increased State/Decreased Federal power provides a way for ideological divisions to be resolved at the local level , and thus lose potency as political red meat. Move to a weekly news cycle so policy can be worked out and digested before being reported. Foreign state powers ( especially geopolitical advesaries) should have very limited access to manipulate hearts and minds of citizens. Mass microtargetting of citizens with personalized propoganda tailored to their personality and weaknesses should not be permitted or heavily regulated.
