    I think the best change that could be made would be to eliminate partisan politics. No more political parties. Every potential elected official runs on their own, in their own riding. They all go to Ottawa and pick a prime minister from among the winners. It would make it harder for lobby groups to influence the upper echelon, like the can do so easily, they would have to spread their influence out and be more visible (hopefully). And yes everyone would vote their self interest but they would have to co-operate with others to get anything for themselves. Maybe then the ideas that were best for the whole country would garner the most support. No more voting along party lines. No more party loyalty the (hold your nose and vote crap). What do you think...…….

      OK, so considering that all politicians are possible narcissists, I will now not vote for sociopaths.

        Even applying that stringent criteria may shrink the field of candidates as much down to very few.
