Plato missed the concept of governance altogether. Just read Politeia.

I think a binding method of enforcing voter decisions upon the elite
is a lynch mob and a lamp pole.

That's just me though, Flint, MI, would have had their government
overthrown a hundred years ago if they decided to poison their own
citizens through negligent policies.

Given the sheer disproportionate influence of elites, claiming the
trivial obstacle of committed delegates to selecting a nominee is
undesirable is absurd.

Preference primaries could allow voters to rank their choices among
candidates, as well as to register opinions about their issue
priorities — like an exit poll, but more formal and with all the
voters. The results would be public but not binding; a way to inform
elites about voter preferences.

Plato missed two government types

[Ryan Carboni]

1. Satyrocracy: governance by orgy

2. apomimarchy: governance by psyop

I think two centuries of scholarship on governance and new
observations should cause some form of reassessment of the US
constitution...
