I wonder though, now that the process to buy candidates is a bit more direct (no need to funnel your money into a super PAC and then have that money weaseled to fuel campaign machinery) could in these coming elections we see the first crowdfunded candidate? I'm envisioning a system by which a representative could sell direct democracy back to the voters. They fund his campaign and (assuming he wins) in return are able to vote (online and in a manner actually convenient to them as opposed to the terrible system the US uses now) on all his actions on the Hill. IANAL, but, the thought seems interesting.
