Not in response to the merits of what Ben has suggested, but only
to point out that one often under appreciated and misunderstood
feature of a democracy is that the majority rules.  As in one
vote over an even split can dictate the path of the organization.
Ultimately it is not a decision by consensus mode of operation.

This can be the cause of much mischief just as it can be a way of
governing effectively.
