The Bishop and the Butterfly: Murder, Politics, and the End of the Jazz Age

Parties and salamanders

I've recently stumbled onto the YouTube site of an unsung genius. He also has a web-site with much of the same content, only with text added.

There's a lot of great content there, but to get you started, I want to highlight these three bits:

First Past the Post

The Alternative Vote

Gerrymandering

There's a lot of other good stuff there, but these three are issues that I think most of us at dagblog can agree on, and that furthermore we could find common cause with many of our conservative friends. As the videos suggest, the ones most likely to fight this are unfortunately those with the most individual power, but perhaps collectively we can fight the power!
