Why would it destroy it, as opposed to merely poisoning further the system as it stands? Do you really want a string of tell-all movies timed to coincide with elections, purporting to reveal the policy missteps, or perhaps even personal moral errors, of the candidates?
Instead of 30 second attack ads you'll have 2 hour attack movies.

I think anything that debases the political discourse further (if that's possible) also creates debate on fixing the system. I advocate running the present system straight into the ground, until all of its components are exhausted and everyone is so disgusted that they've no choice but to push for change. Leave the system dead and see what comes from its ashes.
