I don't oppose trying to improve politics. I do, however, doubt that sweeping changes are likely to happen, particularly at the federal level.
There are lots of places where new memes can be tested. The world provides a laboratory full of variations on the theme of democracy and representative government.
There are also lots of variations among state and local governments. I would personally oppose drastic changes at the national or international level that have not earned their place by gaining popularity at lower levels.
The problem race has come up. That's a different issue altogether. Questions about basic rights and basic justice do belong at the national or international level.
EDITED for spelling.
