My favorite idea for improving democracy comes from Robert Heinlein's novel 'Double Star.'

His idea was that people could choose their 'state' based on their own interests. Instead of being a New Yorker or a Virginian people could pick to be 'soccer mom' or 'IT professional' or 'anarchist' or 'teacher.' The book is light on details, though.
