Thank you for referencing that article conservativejoy. Please bear in mind that the following critique is directed at the article and not at you.

”… Sen. Mitch McConnell … has done NOTHING to roll back the disaster that is President Obama."

On behalf of Sen. McConnell, please consider the following. As a consequence of the ill-conceived 17th Amendment, even after three election cycles low-information patriots have failed to elect the constitutionally mandated 2/3 majority necessary for any Senate majority leader to lead the Senate to remove a corrupt, House-impeached president from office.

In other words, a Senate uniquely controlled by the state legislatures as the Founding States had intended would arguably have worked with the House to give Obama the boot by now.

The 17th Amendment needs to disappear, and corrupt senators and lawless presidents along with it.

You NAILED IT A10. Conservatives OWN the majority of State legislatures. Without the 17th, the Senate would look VASTLY different!

Senators would be beholden to their respective states instead of acting like our rulers!
