It seems this election has brought up a number of things that might
require new solutions.

Since Extropians fix broken things, I thought I'd toss out a few
solutions.

PROBLEM: The ballot in Florida may have confused some voters.

SOLUTION: A national standard balloting system, open standard, so
          all may participate equally.

PROBLEM: The media may have influenced the outcome of the vote.

SOLUTION: Ban all media from polling places, ban all media
          discussion of election results till all polls have
          closed.

Discuss.
