4. Just another argument.

But since you bring it up... when are Dems going to get off their asses and make the argument that we need to reform our ridiculous amendment formula. Right now states with just 4% of the US population can thwart any reform... yet states with 40% can ratify one.

Just as the EC creates swing states that are the biggest targets for voter manipulation, so does the amendment formula.

Just as we need to abolish the EC because it makes a mockery of the concept of self-government... so do other aspects of our system... the Senate and the amendment process.
