I would propose changes that benefit representative Democracy. It is pretty hard to make rules to favor just one side when the majority shifts every few years.
The big one would be to make Congressional approval of appointments based on a vote of the entire congress (House and Senate combined) instead of just the Senate. Also reapportion the seats in the House.
We could keep the electoral college if we did away with "winner take all" from each state. My vote for President is meaningless in Tennessee and there are lots of other people in BOTH parties who feel the exact same way in a lot of states. Voter turnout would be much larger if every vote really counted.
