"We can draft anything, but will we go to the masses?" said Congressman Darrell Issa, creator of Congress's little-known online crowdsourcing legislative platform, Project Madison.

Issa, commonly known as the firebrand conservative critic of President Obama, is also the former chairman of the Consumer Electronics Association, and has used his engineering background to experiment with other digital tools, such as a interactive polling game and livestreams of otherwise secretive committee hearings.
