Perhaps he can also fix the intersections of IP and politics while he's at it ;-) +1

All you need is one tiny little mechanism to make it all possible, to let like minds speak as one. Which, of course, I've been working on for a while. I wouldn't be surprised if Lessig is getting into the area of enabling the people to be heard.
