Molly Ivins has part of the prescription, which she spells out here via Common Dreams.

I do not expect to see these proposals implemented in my lifetime. Nor would I normally expect to see another president like Bush, which would be a denial of rationality, but given the ruling class contempt for democracy – it is not their system of government. However, a Bush clone cannot be ruled out.

All power to the imagination of the dreamers I say.

If America, or at least the United States, was a democracy, if would be a better country, and we would live in a better world. Anyway, something to look forward to, even though most of us will not be alive when it happens.
