I wanna see a new vote-based show...

I want to see a prime time call-in voting show called "American President" dedicated to choosing an independent candidate for the next presidential election. Do it like "You're the One That I Want" -- the show that chose Danny and Sandy for the upcoming Broadway production of Grease. Have a diverse group of political experts (perhaps news reporters, college profs, etc.) narrow a set of candidates down to 16 based on the education, debating skills, experience, whatever (but not political views!), then have on-air debates, speeches, mock state-of-the-state addresses, Q&A sessions with real newspeople. America votes which candidate will run as an independent in 2008.

Thoughts?
