10 Things America should do if we actually value democracy

1. Automatic voter registration for all citizens
2. Allow all citizens of voting age to vote, including felons and people currently incarcerated
3. Mandatory voting
4. Mail in voting available for all
5. Election day becoming several days, including a weekend
6. Abolish the electoral college and move to the popular vote in presidential elections
7. Institute ranked voting systems to encourage third parties.
8. Eliminate gerrymandered districts (moving, perhaps, to a proportional party vote) in state elections
9. Ban corporations from donating money to politicians
10. Restrict active campaigning AND political fundraising to only 8 weeks before election day.
