Screw the politicians.
It’s time for AMERICANS to take back AMERICA.
“[How] to check these unconstitutional invasions of... rights by the Federal judiciary? Not by impeachment in the first instance, but by a strong protestation of both houses of Congress that such and such doctrines advanced by the Supreme Court are contrary to the Constitution; and if afterwards they relapse into the same heresies, impeach and set the whole adrift. For what was the government divided into three branches, but that each should watch over the others and oppose their usurpations?”
— Thomas Jefferson to Nathaniel Macon, 1821. (*) FE 10:192
Kinda my point. They are prfectly fine with the status quo and have been for decades.
It's time for AMERICANS to take back AMERICA.
I just find this thread confusing. On one hand you have folks shouting "Screw the politicians, take back America" while on the other hand you have others declaring that the 17th Amendment has to be repealed, that U.S. Senators should be elected by state legislatures (i.e., other politicians) rather than directly by citizens.
Why on earth would any citizen give up the right to directly vote for their own U.S. Senator? Folks advocating that are living in a dream world. Ain't gonna happen.
