How about this: Anyone who wants to run for public office designs a flyer, which is mailed by the government to the voters' homes, and if a determined number of people sign their support, this person is on the ballot and receives a certain amount from the government (based on the office and possibly other factors, number of people in voting pool, etc..) to spend on their campaign and are not allowed to spend a penny more.
if people don't like the fact that this comes from their tax money, keep in mind that when corporations finance campaigns, they're planning to get the money back from your tax money anyway.
any ideas, suggestions, criticism?
