The paper http://www.aei.org/docLib/20051206_ElectoralSystemsHorowitz.pdf
has some good points but needs to be paralleled with real life situations. Presenting options and intentions of electoral systems in isolation is both dry and boring. Unfortunately
there has to be some explaining and to bring about change it cannot all be done by storytelling. There are two issues with changing or modifying anything, the first is "from what to what" which has to be followed by a “how can” we bring about change. The first part needs the mental buy in from most everyone the second is a war of minds and a subsequent battle of storytelling (media). I watched a BBC Christmas special “The Thick of It- The Rise of the Nutters” very funny if not so true. At least there is someone out there trying to show up what a farce the current system has degenerated into. The show was storytelling at its finest.
