Bring Back Democracy-- Internet Voting!

Mixed feelings.

I can think of several problems with internet voting. The Major would be security. Its very easy to have multiple accounts. To be honest I'm an IT guy and i can see it being a disaster. It would be extremely simple to produce a web server that would just create a massive amount of fake email accounts. Although if you had a goverment email account based on your social securty it would be a bit tough but not impossible. i remember hearing about someone able to gain access to your soccial security number by date and place of birth but not sure how accurate that information is. In a perfect world its entirely possible. But then again we wouldn't be dealing with the issues we currently have.
As far as it bringing back democracy i doubt it. If you want to bring back democracy take control of the media and make it your agenda. To do so i don't see it as a possibility. Oddly enough i think the people that are really pushing for democracy are the blog sites and especially this site the young turks.
