At this point I'd be ok with a constitutional monarchy. Make it so the King is chosen by the legal citizens of the country, any fraud is given the hardcore mode in minecraft penalty, and one vote per person with photo ID provided. Hell, I'll make it a little better. If you're on welfare/disability, and you haven't actually attempted to find some work/haven't worked long enough to offset the cost, say a man who's worked most of his life that hasn't been able to do so in several years now, then you don't get to vote.
The states keep their governors, as the king cannot manage everything at once. The senate goes back to being state-selected and not elected, that's what the house is for. Every four years the king is up for choosing again, and if any member of his court, which includes himself, mentions anything about wanting to confiscate/put a restriction on/outlaw certain weapons because they "look scary/nobody should have that outside the military", they are immediately removed from office and jailed in some prison that is not nice to the inmates. Solitary confinement, life sentence.
There's more to my idea of course, and I bet that the vast majority of what I theorize about putting in place could be done so much better, and is easily corruptible. Plus, I suppose it also makes me a traitor to the founding fathers on an ideological level. But at this point, with where the American Idea of Freedom has lead us, and to an extent, the world, to? I'm ok with that.
Oh, and we're banning the existence of the Georgia Bulldogs, Florida State Seminoles, Ohio State Buckeyes, and Houston Astros. Has to be done.
