WHAT’S NEXT? At some point the Trump administration will end, and We The People need to be ready for when it does. We need a plan to fix the broken parts of the United States governmental system. So in the words of President Josiah Bartlet… WHAT’S NEXT?
The answer… Democracy++! In computer programing, the increment operator (displayed as ++) increases or progresses a value, usually by one. This is why there is a programming language called C and then a more feature-rich language called C++. C++ improved upon C. The Founding Fathers, like Madison and Hamilton plus-plused Democracy by improving on the Magna Carta Libertatum to create The Constitution of the United States. Now it’s time to plus-plus Democracy once again in Order to continue forming a more perfect Union! To do just that, Democracy++™ has authored and now proudly presents these proposals for new Amendments and Federal Laws.

To Aaron Sorkin Specifically-
You gave us the hopefulness of The West Wing and then we were treated with President Obama. Next, we were given the malevolence of House of Cards and the vacuousness of Veep and ended up with the unmitigated disaster that is Trump. Mr. Sorkin, we need your patriotic inspiration once again. Your nation is calling on you to reboot The West Wing.
Here are some ideas to spark your creativity:
1. Explore the counter-factual of what would have happened if Hilary Clinton won in 2016.
2. Explore the counter-factual of if Trump was actually removed from office because of either of his impeachments.
3. Explore what the country could look like in 5 to 10 years if the amendment and federal laws proposed by Democracy++ are actually implemented.
Mr. Sorkin, you’ve always expressed some interest in bringing back The West Wing, but you were unsure how. Well… This is the How! This is the Reason! This is the Time!
