Yes, I've seen the Simpsons episode where Mensa takes over Springfield.
But seriously, getting rid of the electoral college is a good start.
Who gets to be the arbiter of the suffrage quotient? Who decides the metrics? Sounds Brave New Worldish
Not everyone gets a Ph.D.
Why should stupid people who have no understanding of how the economy or the environment works be the ones to decide what happens? Tell you what: you let a farmer with no formal education operate on your brain then you come back and tell me educated people don't know best.
