ANSWER: Our two groups of voters would have to develop a self-governance (S-G) strategy that enabled them to keep Congress continually replenished with a steady supply of extraordinarily capable, "PKQ-caliber" legislators, i.e., "non-self-serving" [liberals, conservatives, Democrats, Republicans, etc.] who could govern, collectively, with the:

intelligence of an Einstein,
wisdom of a Solomon,
compassion of a Mother Teresa,
logic of a Mr. Spock,
ingenuity of a MacGyver,
vision of a Steve Jobs,
backbone of a Wonder Woman,
moral compass of a Nelson Mandela,
common sense of a Mark Twain.

REASONABLE LAYMAN'S GUESSTIMATE: America easily has one million-plus PKQ-caliber citizens, which works out to roughly 0.3% of our population. That's a recruitment pool of ~2,300 PKQ-caliber candidates in each 700,000+ person congressional district.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT: What if it wasn’t the vast mainstream (VM) of America’s LOC and ROC voters who gathered around that kitchen table, but the VM of America’s political academics?

Going in to that momentous meeting, would their “normative” self-governance (S-G) objective be the same as that of our VM of voters: namely, making a permanent transition to PKQ-controlled Congresses?---i.e., keeping both chambers of Congress filled with a steady supply of highly capable legislators who did not have (relatively speaking) self-serving, politically ambitious or power-hungry bones in their bodies.

Or would our academics reject that (extraordinarily intelligent) “shared” apolitical/non-ideological (ANI) objective as woefully [simplistic, naive, unrealistic], and focus instead on more traditional, inside-the-box approaches, e.g., ethics reform, campaign finance reform, redistricting reform, term limits, ranked choice voting, instant registration (to increase voter turnout), etc.?

The history of new ideas (that are paradigm shifting, status quo-disrupting, course-of-history-changing) says our “establishment” academics would largely ignore the normative S-G solution—i.e., our LOC and ROC voters using their “power of the ballot box” in their national legislative election process (NLEP) to achieve their shared ANI objectives—and pursue traditional, pro-status quo remedies.

The question for every thinking individual---who isn’t adverse to seeing bad paradigms replaced by good ones, or the feathers of our unelected ruling class (a.k.a. our intelligentsia) get temporarily ruffled when the shift occurs---is: how does one go about turning an idea (in this case, America’s voters transitioning to PKQ-controlled Congresses), which as of now is an idea that no rational person could possibly take seriously, into an idea that every rational person takes seriously—and wonders why it has taken so long for our democratic society (all democratic societies, in fact) to even consider making the transition.

Providing a layman's answer to that "how" question is one of the focuses of this webpage.
