It is not.

Why not? You don't see a need for 61 states to ratify an amendment to end slavery as being a problem

It was not a problem to the founders of the United States Constitution. And it is not a problem for me.

The founders wrote into the constitution a supermajority requirement to peacefully adopt an amendment.

Of the original 13 states, 13 of them voted to include the supermajority requirement.

I see launching a violent war that kills 750,000 people and caused vast destruction as being the bigger problem than trying to pass a law the people didn't actually want.

This is more like tyranny than democracy.
