If you ask me, neither the prosecutor nor the defense attorney should be the ones striking jurors. I don't have a full solution to that, either, but it seems like voir dire is one way attorneys try to stack the deck, often times by excluding the most qualified jurors.
But, I agree - it must first and foremost be a jury of the accused's peers - but that doesn't mean "man on the street style average joe" necessarily.
