Political System: Does it need to be changed?

Friends
The atmosphere around our country is quite uneasy. people are not comfortable with the happenings in last couple of weeks or rather in last one year. Politicians are quite smart to guage the mood of the public as they know how to tame us, and hence just doing some adjustments to show the public that they are acting for our benefit. Probably we know and understand too but our memory is not long lasting and that is what they misuse. Soon we would forget and move closer to politicians for petty individual benefits.
I strongly feel that the existing electoral system needs to be revamped as per the prevailing situation. It can be like the USA where the head of state is elected by public and not by the MPs we elect. In present system the regional parties are too strong and the whole nation dance to the tune set by them. If we are really serious to save our self, our country and ofcourse the coming generations, we need to seriously looked into this issue and urgently. Let there be open discussion on this topic. I know there would be strong resistence, particularly by those who are masters of manipulative and short sighted politics, but still it should be definitely debated.
Present political system lures towards manipulations, corruption, short sightedness and irresponsibility in politicians.
