Not the way the Constitution was originally written. The People were to be kept as far away from judicial nominees as possible.

I sorry if you disagree with the First and the Seventeenth Amendments.

There has been nothing said about the first and there have been many comments over the years questioning the wisdom of having Senators be elected. I am ambivalent about it given the idiots who make up state legislatures.

I was making a point about the intentions of the Founders.
