I agree. Few people understand how the filibuster has been changed and rigged to serve as a partisan tool instead of a roadblock to advance new legislation that would incite voter anger.

The filibuster is not in the constitution. It is an odd tradition that was created to make the Senate feel special. Get rid of it and all will be better off.
