Here is evidence that at least one of my major ideas is coming to fruition in a mere 35 years.
The use of random citizens for public policy making was proposed by me in the mid-1970s. I have written about it often and co-wrote the first book on the subject.
It looks like, California will have an initiative this year, based on three days of deliberation by 410 randomly selected Californians.
Last year we had our elective districts designed by a random selection of citizens on a small committee. It was a small step in the right direction. We now have a giant step in the right direction.
I'm not planning to die soon, but what I see around me is the complete success of a harebrained idea that I had when I was a very young man.
