First night of the convention, all the ping pong balls are put into a big bin and mixed up. Then Al Gore comes out, is blindfolded, reaches in and pulls one out.

That's the nominee. The other one is the VP. (Like the NBA draft lottery.)

Confetti everywhere.

The Political Power-Ball drawing would have the advantage of being the most watched non-Super Bowl TV event ever.

John Edwards would have 26 ping pong balls, a 0.5% chance, which would make it even more exciting.

I don't know if Al Gore would hand the winner a scepter and tiara.

2. To quick. Better to do a 3 day marathon combination of Deal or No Deal, a Who Wants to be a
Millionaire with questions about policy, geography, and the Repos, and then a Survivor day where the candidates go to an island with super delegates.

Then average the scores.
