There is a poll on his web page... how did you vote? What is the single most important Constitutional Amendmentment you can think of?

I hope this hasn't already been posted; if it was I didn't see it.

Note: The URL will expire at the end of today, and the new URL you will have to enter to find the page is here (but this one doesn't work yet)

Repealing the 17th amendment would also solve campaign finance reform.

I have to go with the 17th. This has done more to allow the federal government to expand than anything else. It has also created a political class of senators which remain in office so long they begin to smell funny. Each of these pompous senators takes on the air of the mini president.

Just think what couldn't happen if a states governor could stop it. That was the original intent.

We created a monster with this populist addition to the Constitution, time to get rid of it.

An Amendment to force the US Government to follow the Constitution or be desolved! NOW

My amendment would be to make it harder to amend the Constitution. It's actually frightenignly easy as it is right now.

I SUPPORT THIS ONE: Democrats, illegial aliens and welfare recipients are ineligible to vote in state, federal or local elections.

If we really want to fix this country, we should pass an amendment that bars lawyers from ever holding elected office. How much better would this country be if congress was filled with plumbers, physicians, astronomers, businessmen, accountants, etc.?

Unfortunately, the damn near all-lawyer congress would have to agree to it first.

In reality, only armed revolution could ever get it done.
