So no computer, no emergent democracy for you, right? Who here speaks for the illiterate or the working poor?

Is being informed a right or a responsibility? How about being connected? Must literacy be prerequisite to choosing your representative? Considering the role statistics play in election and governance, how about numeracy? Computer literacy? Geomancy?

Democracy emerges whether we like it or not, or so it appears; pluralism will out. The process looks like sausage grinding, even with digital five-spice powder. Its arrogance may even be bitter to the taste. But emergent democracy is a morphed hybrid of shadow people and meatspace. Our virtual selves make connections, our flesh selves makes them solid, enduring, and actionable. It's as though a spirit world guides us to meetups, to churches, to union halls where we speak in tongues in praise of lesser gods, of devils to apagenate, of evangelical congregation leading to personal and collective salvation. Watch as democracy emerges from our phones and explodes into the world of bad breadth, parking karma, and baby kissing.

I worry less about the digital divide. After all, the digital divide will be over when we can vote by Nokia, around 2012. I worry about the many millions of adults stripped of their right to vote because of a felony record. Of the children who have no say in the legislation and budgets that define their health, development, and safety. Of long term residents become second class non-citizens. What would happen if the more than ten million ex-cons in the U.S. population had their votes restored? What would happen if we enfranched children, parents voting their proxy? Could this give us our second black president (Clinton being the first)? Would schools and food for kids get parity with pensions and healthcare for seniors?
