I'd rather start from scratch then modify Atlasia from the current position, personally.

I think a ceremonial figurehead of a Prez is a good idea, perhaps appointed by the parliament. I would suggest that the cabiney, including the Prime Minister, should be elected from a lower house that includes all members besides the Senators, who would be elected at-large, perhaps proportionally, although I think FPTP would be better (shock horror) if everyone is so set on getting rid of preferential voting; we should be voting for individual candidates rather then lists.

So, I support a parliamentary system, but I won't join this group. I'm not active enough in Atlasia any more, and I think it's gpoing about the reforms the wrong way. Reforming from the current position is just going to make everything even more muddled. Atlasia needs to start again from scratch.

I oppose this, and that is what I shall say on the matter. We've had our probelms with the Presidency, but the UNited States has too. Should the U.S. simply go to a Parliamentary system because every election since 1968 there has been snickers of corruption?

Yes.
