The congress &/or the president should set up a system to hear the public's opinion on important matters in real time unbiased by political machines which generally have alternative motives. This could be done by a referendum type vote maybe following a state of the union speech or "fireside chat". In said referendum everything would be written in common English with no legalese involved So the "average " person could read, understand & make an informed decision.
Why is this important?
I think the country needs an instant phone or computer based referendum system so the PEOPLE can be heard. If people trust their life savings & other important info with just a login & password surely they can trust their vote with the same security protocols.
