I think liquid democracy is a reasonable proposition: delegate your vote to professionals, but take it back on any propositions you have a strong opinion about.

I think liquid democracy is a reasonable proposition: delegate your vote to professionals, but take it back on any propositions you have a strong opinion about. Having met some representative and politicians, I can confidently say that they are as vulnerable to misinformation, hubris and inadequate education than the average voter. Switzerland has actually a system pretty close to DD with its petition-triggered referendums. I believe California has something similar? DD is the possibility to vote, but it is fine to have representatives, as long as you can take your cote back when you want.
