Representatives represent the people as individuals, Senators represent the people as a state. It seems to me like the job of a representative is to represent, and the best qualifications are those of doing the best discovering, and advancing the will of the people, in order of their priorities.
The representative must know the views of all of one's constituents and must honor the freedoms and equalities upon which this country was founded. The representative is bound to solicit the views his constituency, and act only with the support of a full majority.
To that end, technology proves a very crucial tool in its ability to move and organize information. One should establish an electronic system for authenticating identity for the purposes of verifying constituents, for receiving and organizing viewpoints, and for modifying those views either on an individual level, or on an organizational level by majority vote of those who support the respective view.
