We need serious campaign reform which takes the millions of dollars out of the equation and makes people run on credible platforms instead of how much money they can pump into mindless advertising that puts them in front of people's eyes. There are ways to make it workable, but like you said, getting it implemented is difficult. Unfortunately, the people who benefit from the system being the way it is right now are the only ones who could change the system and I don't see much hope in that.
What we need are voters who value their freedom, and who can read and understand their duty is to elect people with credible platforms.
What we have are illiterates and non-literates and over grown children with access to the ballot box. Frankly, all the in the world that don't address this won't fix the problem.
